Sssaaa—
A gently blowing breeze.
Spring in full bloom brushed past the flower petals, scattering their fresh scent into the air.
Beyond the softly drifting fragrance, the season shone vividly.
And yet, within that season, there lingered an inescapable sense of dissonance.
Pooled blood on the ground. Frost clinging to every surface.
At the heart of that solitary winter, someone had collapsed.
