The Giant in the Mist

An old recluse was found shattered at the bottom of a jagged ravine. Inside his isolated cabin, police discovered a frantic final journal entry: "The Giant of the Clouds has come for me. He wears a crown of rainbow fire. He mimics my every move, mocking my terror. He knows what I buried in '72. I must jump to appease him." Locals whispered about cryptids or a vengeful mountain spirit, but the medical examiner confirmed the old man jumped off the cliff entirely of his own free will.
