In literary works, "scree" often denotes not only a tangible, unstable deposit of loose rock fragments on mountain slopes but also serves as a metaphor for the challenges and unpredictability inherent in rugged landscapes. It is used to evoke an atmosphere of natural difficulty—whether describing a gentle slope where the route softens momentarily [1] or a perilous descent over shattered debris that tests one’s resolve [2, 3]. At times, "scree" marks the transition between stable ground and precarious terrain, underscoring both the physical and symbolic obstacles encountered by protagonists [4, 5]. This dual use enriches the narrative, lending vivid imagery to the inherent power and relentless erosion of nature’s forces [6, 7].
