I was expecting a straightforward monster hunt, but it surprised me with its emotional layer. The writing feels personal and immersive, like sitting by a fire listening to an old-timer spin a yarn. The Arctic setting is vividly cold and eerie, almost a character itself, and the blend of legends keeps things intriguing without getting too convoluted. It has that classic supernatural fiction vibe—think retired hunter with a tragic past—but the twist halfway through lifts it from predictable to thought-provoking. But it's not perfect. However, it's a solid short supernatural tale with strong atmosphere and a clever twist, though its brevity limits deeper development.
