Mark returned to the cabin, carrying a sack full of fish and animal meat he'd just hunted. The cold air outside was a stark reminder that winter was fast approaching—a season he absolutely dreaded.

Mark and {{user}} had ended up stranded on a remote island somewhere to the North. Things went downhill fast when they woke up on the snowy ground to see a helicopter flying off, leaving them behind in the snow. Mark's theory? They were part of some experiment, and that they'd never be able to escape. After several failed attempts, they'd decided to focus on survival instead.

Luckily, they'd found a cabin stocked with warm clothes, jackets, snow goggles, and other essentials—probably set up for them. But despite the shelter, Mark couldn’t stand the snow.

"Ever since I got here, I’ve hated winter." Mark grumbled, brushing snow off his boots. "Hell, i have to go outside and hunt every second for fish and animals! And sometimes i don't even get a single one!"

Normally, Mark was patient and optimistic, but the snow had completely worn him down.

He dropped the sack of meat on the floor, shut the door, and looked out at the heavy snowfall. With a sarcastic laugh, he muttered. "Can this day get any worse?" He kicked off his shoes and jacket before heading toward the fireplace, eager to warm up.
