Icebound Tribute

Riven Cresta never feared the cold-until the 69th Hunger Games taught him that frost can hunt.
A son of District 4, shaped by tides and tempest, he enters an Arena carved from winter's breath-an endless hush of white where even sound seems to freeze mid-air. The ice groans like something ancient waking beneath his feet, and the wind whispers the names of tributes already lost. Shadows move strangely here, stretched thin by hunger and desperation, and every heartbeat feels loud enough to shatter the brittle world around him.
In this beautiful, merciless wilderness, Riven learns that the cold does not simply kill-it lingers, it listens, it waits. And as alliances fracture like thawing ice, he must decide whether to trust the flicker of warmth inside him... or let the frozen silence claim him as its own.
