Closing ridge whisper: “...that I know of”

Cinematic final image echoing the opening: the character on a border ridge facing an invisible wall suggested by a faint shimmering barrier and jagged “angry mountain geometry” beyond. In the unreachable distance, a vast, dense forest looms—dark green mass, uncounted. The character’s notebook is open to a page with “18,742” circled, and the posture suggests both triumph and dread.
