After the disappearance of a woman from a small town, a photograph of an unknown creature is found on her phone. Aiming to solve this mystery, the government sent a small squad of Canadian soldiers into the forest-covered Rocky mountains to investigate.
Taking up residence in an old abandoned cabin, they work on finding what exactly this creature is, until they discover something that leaves their outlook on the world permanently altered.
"Never leave the mountains" is a mantra Tobi's mother had always repeated, something Tobi has lived by for the last 20 years of her life, believing that those who died in the mountains never belonged there in the first place. Until she meets the four soldiers and her opinion suddenly shifts, leaving her in mental turmoil and her morals tested.

The Dark Lord's Kiss for the Pure Virgin Girl! 🦇🖤
Lara, in this magical and enchanting world, nothing is a lie! So believe in fairy tales. This was the phrase my mother whispered to me every night with her gentle voice. When she read the story of "Jack and the Beanstalk," I would always curiously ask: • But why don't I have a magic bean that can take me wherever I want? She would smile kindly and keep hope alive in my heart. We all believed in magic and wizards as children, fairy tales, and Little Red Riding Hood! I wished I would never know the bitter taste of reality. But years after her death, I faced the harsh reality of the world; a reality I had always tried to escape. After my mother's death, her voice remained with me, inviting me to the bright world of hope; unlike many who grew up and no longer believed in any childish dreams. But I remained faithful to stories and the land of fairies, believing that destiny awaits us all! We are born into different tales and live with love. However, the bitterness of the world ensnared me in its grip. Just when I was only nine years old, I became acquainted with the bitter reality of life; when the snowy night arrived! I had never seen snow so terrifying and ugly. Because my mother was in bed, coughing up blood and taking her last breaths. A tiny bit of white snow had fallen from my woolen boots onto the ground, and when her hand hung limp, droplets of blood dripped from her fingers onto the snow, turning it red.
