Beneath the towering peaks of snow-dusted mountains, a narrow path wound its way through an ancient pine forest. The air was crisp and clean, filled with the earthy aroma of moss and bark. Sunlight filtered through the dense canopy, casting dappled patterns on the soft forest floor. In the distance, the gentle murmur of a stream provided a soothing rhythm, blending seamlessly with the rustling of leaves in the wind. It was a sanctuary untouched by time, where every step felt like a journey into a forgotten world.
