Heart Cultivation - 353 Frozen Basin
Despite waiting for sometime, the snowfall did not decrease.
It was getting unbearable, they would become frozen statues if they remained in the direct snowfall any longer.
Whether human or beast, everyone has it’s limits, and to face this constant snowfall was already too much, moreover they just escaped fatal winds and barely could save their lives from burying down in the endless snow.
The hunters those were resting inside the cave gave themselves thorough check out and sort out their injuries, many of them drank few drops of blood to instantly heal, compared to the direct snowfall this cave was a heaven.
The Omega was standing and waiting for the hunters to recuperate so that they could start the journey again.
His goal was to find the exit as soon as possible, the only way to get rid this snow seemed to be to leave frozen basin.
The hunters those were standing outside were not happy.
“You seemed to be angry?” a hunter asked the other, he was just nudging he already knew that everyone was angry currently.
“Should not I be? Can’t you judge we all are affected by the winds and those who have taken shelter are only making it look like they are pampered by the Omega, if this went on I might not able to stand it,” the hunter was fuming.
The hunter nodded, “You are right, the cold is getting unbearable with the time, the time when we were hiding inside the underground Vale, I never imagined that it would turn out this in just a day, now I only wanted to leave no matter what,” the hunter was equally worried.
“It is some time and the injured has rested a little, now the Omega should let us save our heads from the constant snow,” the hunter pointed.
The other hunter who heard him looked toward the Omega who was still standing the same and shook his head, “From the look, the Omega has not planned it yet,”
For them it has gone a decade but actually it was not much time when they were rolling down from the steep, so do Omega think, without letting the injured rest properly or recuperate, he cannot order them to come out in the snow.
The hunters thought to ask Omega about it when they saw the frail hunter doing some odd thing.
Jen was not some human beast to stand still and do nothing, she was human and humans always find a way to think how they can survive even if it brings a small change.
She has some extra cover clothes which could be used to build a small tent, the only problem was that she has not a single metal or wood stick to build a proper tent.
The hunters who were frustrated about their present situation started to notice her.
Jen walked around and thought what solution can be to address this problem, she walked left a long distance and then right direction, finally her mind hit a perfect idea.
As soon as the pillar reached more than half of her height, she stopped and started to prepare another.
When the three pillars were ready, it was time for the bigger pillar to stand in front of three so that when the snow would fall on the tent cloth, it would slip sideways.
After setting up the cloth cover on the pillars, it was ready to provide shelter from the direct snow, Jen carefully bent and walked inside the tent.
She sat there with ease and the hunters were looking at her as if they happened to see miracle, the snow clearly was slipping sideways and the frail hunter was resting without worry.
They looked at each other as if asking, should we give it a try too? perhaps they got impressed, now they were also following all the mysterious moves of the frail hunter, the way he made the shelter.
“You should make the snow pillars,” one of them asked other.
“Why asking me, go and make it for yourself,” the other answered in return.
“Where can I find the cloth?” another was worried over this problem.
“It’s not my problem, I will make my own,” the fourth one immediately separated from them and started to make snowballs.
They all seemed worried individually for their own good.
They were running errands and bumping into each other in struggle to make shelter, “You broke my pillar with your gown,” a hunter spoke fuming, he was making pillar when a hunter walked past without holding his red hoody long thick gown and it messed the snowy pillar.
“You should have made it strong and not blaming me,” the hunter answered in return.
“You are being noisy, can you shut up,” one of them who was setting up the cover for final look got distracted by their conversation and broke one of the pillar.
It was all unexpected for Jen, she never thought that these hunters would copy her act and now perhaps they were about to erupt at each other.
The silent place was looking a mess now, they were struggling individually to build their own tents, it was sight to witness.
But they forgot that they were no more human but human beast, no matter how hard they struggle they might not be able to act rational, they could help each other in setting up tent, the individual effort was going waste and they were getting furious.
Few were able to set up the shelter which was one of the wonders of three spheres.
The others were eyeing those who were able to sit in their tents, the overall situation seemed less appealing and more destructive as they might not be accepting it fair.
