Heart Cultivation - 355 Frozen Basin
The snow fall stopped.
Those who stayed in the open were not much happy and the dog fight has already created grudges in them.
Jen collected the cloth cover and kept inside her storage, she was looking around to roughly estimate where the caravan ended up after facing the winds.
Perhaps they lost their initial direction and now the caravan was standing at blank ends, it can be dangerous situation because the weather was unpredictable.
For now the snowfall has stopped but they cannot guarantee how long it will remain this way.
The Omega ordered the hunters to get ready for the journey, for him it was necessary to find exit as soon as possible.
If it took few more days, the hunters might perish in the frozen basin, it was simply letting them die if he slowed down the pace of journey, they have to keep moving no matter what.
Jen saw the determination of the Omega and got worried, she has to think a way to delay the journey but after wreaking her brain half a day still no plan seemed to work immediately.
The real problem came when it was time to set off for the journey, every direction was the same and confusing.
There were discussions among the hunters, this look like they were the one to decide which direction should be taken, some were having conflicts.
Those who were injured during winds got puzzled because they cannot take long journey, it would only increase their worry about the unseen situations.
Jen was at ease to see that this problem can be taken benefits from, she could use her tongue to flame the conflict, though she don’t believe that everything was fair in love and war but to get rid scums most of the things were fair in her eyes.
“Why I couldn’t see a proper direction?” she asked to the hunter standing next to her.
“You cannot see because no one can see, we can’t see any direction, ah, there is not a direction actually,” this hunter was the one who got a punch and fist from other hunter during brawl.
“What do you mean fellow, does it means we have lost our path? Where would we go now? I fear I might not be able to reach back at the dark region,” Jen voiced desperate and disappointed.
“You should have considered the possibilities, from the looks this void is going to settle some grudge with us and I am not sure whether I will be able to destroy this useless void and exit out,” he shook his shoulders.
“It all depends what direction the superior Omega would choose for the next journey,” Jen nodded and looked around as if trying to get the present situation and to know what discussion was going on among others.
The others were also discussing same topic, during this the hunters who were resting in the cave came out, they could see that the Omega can order to move anytime soon.
It was a burden on his shoulders to safely bring out the remaining hunters from this void.
“I don’t know which direction is right, all feels the same, I am confused,” a hunter shook his head.
He walked some distance to reach the peak of the cave so that he could find some rough pointer of the location but all in vain.
It was not that they were not good at finding right direction, it was due to their present standing point, they were at the wrong place to look for the direction, they have to leave a full distance fifty or above meters and then look for the direction.
The present place was a zero mark point of the frozen basin, from here anyone who would look for the direction would face difficulty.
If they don’t find direction does not means they would stay there for whole day, the Omega has to order them to move at last.
He himself went up at the peak of the cave to take a look, all remained the same, he finally gave in and gestured them all to follow him.
The hunters thought that perhaps Omega being the superior could see what they cannot so they followed him behind, only he himself knew that he was bringing them nowhere as long as he was able to find direction.
“The Omega is superior after all, did you see he could guess where should we move,” a hunter who was worried before heaved a sigh of relief to find the gesture of the Omega.
“Why not, after all he is responsible to lead us and make sure that we don’t fall in a trap, he will be questioned if the caravan perished in the useless void,” the other hunter was not impressed, his priority was to find a way out, with or without Omega.
All the hunters were getting restless, they never thought that one day they would end up in such useless tricky place and would be worried for their lives.
Jen was not thinking the same, in her eyes the proceeding of her plan was going well and this place was doing the most favors, she alone cannot bring down the number count so this void was helping too.
Almost twenty over hunters were killed from the time they started journey, and now she could clearly feel that the hunters were disappointed and don’t trust much their Omega, it was good development.
This disappointment can also be used as weapon, she was thinking all possible means to carry her path.
The custodians who were following the caravan silently could also witness what was the present situation among the hunters and they were pretty inspired from the master.
Every action of their master was perfectly taken and brought changes in the initial zeal of the caravan.
