Retter Grube

Setting Info: In Austria's rugged Salzburg Alps, one mountain range towers above the rest: the Hochkönig Mountains. Shrouded in snow, shielded by razor-sharp rocks and precipitous ridges, this unforgiving terrain makes it impassable. Within its desolate landscape, a crater forms as summer's warmth melts the winter's snow. In October's tempests, the 797 pilgrimage presses on with its Jesus of Nazareth carriage navigating treacherous mountain passes. As the blinding snowstorm reduces visibility, pilgrims stumble through the whirling chaos, their senses overwhelmed. Led by a frozen lake, they struggle to maintain balance as one of the faltering horses slips and sends the carriage plummeting through the ice. The impact shatters the surrounding ice, sending shards crashing down upon the pilgrims below.
