Drayden Reece and his wife Siobhan Reece had always been passionate about rock climbing. They had spent years training and perfecting their skills, and their dream was to climb the highest peaks in the world. Their latest challenge was the Himalayas, a dangerous and treacherous mountain range that had claimed the lives of many experienced climbers before them. They knew the risks, but they were determined to conquer the peak.

As they ascended the mountain, the air grew colder and the wind stronger. They were both experienced climbers, but they had never faced such extreme weather conditions before. The snow was falling so heavily that they could barely see each other. Drayden checked his equipment, making sure that everything was in order, while Siobhan took a moment to catch her breath.

"This is insane," she said, her voice muffled by the howling wind. "We should turn back."

Drayden shook his head. "No, we're too close now. We can make it to the peak."

But as they continued their ascent, the weather only got worse. The blizzard was so intense that they could barely move forward. And then they heard it. A sound that sent chills down their spines. It was a low, mournful wail, like the cry of a lost soul.

"What was that?" Siobhan whispered, her voice barely audible over the wind.

"I don't know," Drayden replied, his heart pounding in his chest. "But we need to keep moving."

They continued climbing, the wail growing louder and more insistent with each passing moment. Siobhan could feel her fear growing, a cold knot in her stomach that made her want to turn back and run. But she knew that they couldn't afford to stop. Not now.

Suddenly, the wail stopped, replaced by an eerie silence. The snow was falling so heavily that they could barely see each other, let alone anything else. But Siobhan had the sense that they were being watched, that something was out there in the storm, lurking just beyond their vision.

"Do you hear that?" Drayden said, his voice low and urgent.

Siobhan strained to listen, but all she could hear was the howling of the wind. "Hear what?"
