Redhawk Caldera And my nose is froze

Daddy!!

Liffey's mind and her voice cried out the word at the sound of Elwood's voice up ahead. The terrain, already difficult to tread from the mounds of snow the blizzard had dumped on them, was growing even more treacherous as she waded into the debris from the avalanche. She slipped on ice now and felt shards of it poking at her feet and sides as she struggled through. She was whimpering before long, and her voice had turned to a pitiful whine when finally she spotted her dad's silver form against the white.

The girl smashed her head against her father's chest when she reached him, sobbing fearfully. She tried to stammer a question to him about what had happened, what was happening, where were the others, but her trembling voice simply wouldn't allow it. She glanced up imploringly at him instead as she tried to control the attack of panic, just as it had slowly begun to settle.
