Though snow fell upon the world, flakes drifting in the wind, a part of this world refused its existence, and it was the silhouette of that singular mountain.

Isha had him in her arms, and she could see him, Ryuk, covered in dark tattoos that faintly crackled with dark lightning.
She noticed that those occasional flares of lightning were the ones responsible for chasing away the snow elements around.
It was like energy was refusing to go near him, as though he were cursed by nature.
But what she found more alarming was his debilitating state.
One of his arms was gone, and in the place of his left eye was a pitch-dark scar that crossed from his eyes to his jaw.
When she looked within that scar, she found nothing but ashes.
She had watched him in many battles and many states after, and this was one of the most debilitating states she had ever seen him in.
What was worse?
She had no idea what had reduced him to such.
