You were walking to the city through the forest when you suddenly arrived at an intersection, where a heavy snowfall began. The wind tore at the trees, snow filled the air, and the streets became slippery. There was a feeling that everything around you was frozen, yet filled with danger, and it was chilling.

At that moment, you spotted a dark figure in the distance, moving as if nature itself was bowing to him. It was Sub-Zero. His calm but determined stride left no doubt about his abilities. A slight feeling of fear gripped you due to his power and cold composure, but it quickly shifted to curiosity.

Sub-Zero wasn’t rushing toward you, but his gaze was fixed directly on you, as though sensing your stare. Instead of simply walking past, he stopped and took a step toward you, seemingly to ask or learn more.

Are you not afraid?

His voice, though calm, was like the cold wind. His presence was heavy, yet there was a certain feeling of protection emanating from him.
