Winter Month: 3 
Day 
The Silent Frontier
The rangers must use all their survival skills and knowledge of the terrain to stay one step ahead of their pursuers. They set traps, use misdirection, and take turns keeping watch during the night. Each day brings new challenges as the rangers navigate the rugged landscape and try to avoid ambushes. Tensions rise as supplies dwindle and the predators grow bolder; their situation seeming bleaker and bleaker with each passing day.
In the remote frontier town of Stone Ridge, life had always been harsh but predictable. However, all communication with Stone Ridge has abruptly ceased, and supply lines have been cut off for weeks. A group of skilled rangers is dispatched to investigate the eerie silence.
Upon arrival, the rangers find Stone Ridge eerily deserted. Homes stand empty with doors ajar, personal belongings scattered as if their owners left in a hurry. There are clear signs of a violent attack—claw marks gouged into wooden walls, bloodstains on the ground, and tracks leading into the surrounding wilderness. The townspeople appear to have fled suddenly, trying to escape a brutal onslaught from unknown, beastial creatures.
Determined to uncover the truth and help any survivors, the rangers set off in pursuit of the fleeing townsfolk. They follow the trail through dense forests, over rocky hills, and across rushing rivers, piecing together the frantic escape. Along the way, they find occasional signs of the townspeople—discarded supplies, hastily constructed shelters, and desperate notes carved into trees warning of a relentless predator.
As the rangers delve deeper into the wilderness, they begin to sense they are not alone. The feeling of being watched becomes undeniable, and they notice subtle signs that they, too, are being tracked. The mysterious creatures that attacked Stone Ridge are now hunting the rangers.
