Tracks in the Snow - A Yeti's Story

❄️ Story Pitch: TRACKS IN THE SNOW - A YETI’S STORY

Tagline: The mountains remember. The snow keeps secrets. And not every monster is what it seems.

🏔 Short Summary:
The Gaelthorn Mountains rise like frozen titans, their jagged peaks swallowed by brutal storms. Snow howls across the ridges, turning stone to ghostly shapes and driving villagers to their hearths, where they murmur ancient tales of shadows that move beneath the drifts.

Shadows like him.

Crouched near the tree line, the yeti blends seamlessly into the storm, silver-white fur rippling, breath slow and silent, more spirit than flesh. The cold doesn’t bite him; it cradles him, for he is as much a part of this wilderness as the ice itself.

But now, humans have returned.
He watches from behind a boulder, tracking their garish colors as they push up the ravine, heavy with metal and rope. He can smell their sweat, bright and sour against the clean scent of pine and ice. He can hear each cautious crunch of their boots, even through the wailing wind.

He wonders, as he always does, why they come.
And what they would do if they ever truly saw him — not the legend or the monster from fireside stories, but the watcher of the snowbound heights.
