A blanket of snow stretched across the frozen forest as tiny snowflakes drifted silently from the sky. The trees stood tall and silent, their branches heavy with frost. The air was crisp, biting at anything that dared to move. But among the quiet woods, soft pawprints dotted the snow — evidence of a lone traveler braving the cold.
Panther Luna, sleek and mysterious, walked slowly along the snowy trail. Her dark fur stood in stark contrast to the whiteness around her, and with each step, her breath puffed visibly into the cold air. Her golden eyes were sharp and full of curiosity. Though the winter chill would have sent most animals hiding, Luna moved with a calm grace, unbothered by the freezing air.
She paused on a ridge, ears twitching at the soft sound of rushing water below. Ahead of her, the forest opened to reveal a vast, icy dam — cracked, ancient, and beautiful. The water beneath it still flowed, slow but determined, breaking through ice formations like a heartbeat beneath a frozen skin.
Luna sat down, her tail curling around her paws for warmth. Her gaze was fixed on the dam, thoughtful, perhaps even nostalgic. What was she thinking? Was she remembering something from her past? Or simply marveling at the frozen beauty before her?
A quiet meow escaped her throat — a soft, strange sound from such a fierce-looking creature. But Panther Luna was no ordinary big cat. She had a gentle soul beneath the cold exterior.
As the snow continued to fall, Luna remained by the dam, still and peaceful.
[ENG SUB]: “So cold… but so beautiful,” she murmured.
Then, with one last glance at the dam, she stood and walked away — vanishing like a shadow into the snow.
