Through a frozen forest, translucent terrors dash Claws of cold fury dig into the brittle earth below Their eyes are an absolute red, mirroring the blood spilled on snow Conical canines hang like icicles adorning jaws that shred and slash Harrowing howls instill upon the villagers a thin layer of chilled fear The hounds of frost descend into the homes of men, women, and children Cutting short monotonous lives the so-called βinnocentsβ held so dear
