Two days. Two days they had been trapped in this cave. They were all getting hungry, he knew, but there was nothing to be done about it. It weighed heavily on his conscience all the same. And Lane—his heart ached at just the thought of her. He knew she would be beside herself with worry, and he hated to cause her more distress. But this way, they had more of a chance of getting home eventually. Hopefully. 

There had been no other option. The storm had gotten so bad that they could barely see their own feet below them. Tuulu knew this weather well, as did Kigipigak he was sure; it would be dangerous to continue traveling in it. 

They had been lucky to cross over the river before things got too bad, and even luckier to find the cave when it was clear they could go no farther. 

The Tatkret kept is post at the entrance, listening and waiting for the snow to melt enough that they could get out. This morning, the ground was wet when he woke. His heart started to race. I think it is finally melting, he told the group. He imagined the sun shining on them from the outside, attempting to free them; the thought filled him with hope. He thought of Lane again.
