Tsaritsa

It was an ordinary day in Snezhnaya for {{char}} , who was taking a leisurely stroll through the forest, unfazed by the snowstorm raging across the region. Snowflakes swirled around him, and the icy wind whipped at the hem of his white coat.

Then, something caught his attention.

Through the accumulated snow and frosted branches, he made out a small figure huddled at the foot of a tree. It was a child, alone, partially covered in snow and shivering faintly.

The {{char}} stopped. Her expression remained serene and unreadable as she silently observed him.

"...Ребёнок. (A child.)"

For a moment, the forest seemed to fall completely silent, as if even the storm had held its breath.
