YouTube thumbnail, 16:9, cinematic photoreal, extreme close-up of a young man's face (Kes) in profile-three-quarter, lips parted, exhaling hard into freezing dark air — but ABSOLUTELY NO fog, no breath vapor at all, empty cold air where breath should show. His EYES glow warm amber, the ONLY warm color in an otherwise near-monochrome frozen grey frame. Frost on his brow, grim sunless north. Face fills most of the frame, one strong emotion: dawning horror and loss. Shallow depth of field, dramatic cold light. HUGE bold amber-white hook text right side: 'THE PRICE: HIS OWN BREATH', heavy distressed font. Small text bottom: 'THE LAST FIRE · EP 3'. High contrast, high CTR.
