*As the three of you settled down momentarily to rest up and regain your energy, the bodies of the wolves would slowly be covered in frost, ultimately becoming frozen due to the lack of bodily heat keeping the carcasses warm. The hides would probably be salvageable, but the meat and muscle below the skin would be lost, seeing that they were too hard and frozen to butcher; if you wanted to harvest the meat, you'd need to drag the bodies into warmer temperature to begin processing. Oshikuru would heal his wounds to a good amount, taking care of his thigh and shoulder wounds, as well as the ice burn that the wolf had given you to your face. However, the wound on your forearm would not give in fully, but it would allow a good degree of movement before pain enveloped your arm fully again due to the frost burns you had taken on directly.*

*As the time wore on, the snow would eventually let up a tiny bit. It would still continue to rain down upon the land, but it was seemingly less outrageous and oppressive as compared to before, and your vision would be able to improve so that you could each see beyond 30 feet, with Theron being able to reach 60. Once again the hill with the snowy plateau would be visible, though it looked a good amount larger and expansive than before. There would be no audible sign of the force that caused that ferocious roar from earlier, but it could still be there.*
Al
"Shall we continue northward? The tracks are gone but I've done my best to remember the path the tracks traveled off to... The battle was rather hectic."

*Theron munched on some dried fruit after finishing his statement. Oshikuru seemed rather beaten up, but he wasn't quite sure why they all attacked him. Was he far enough from the group to be considered alone and vulnerable? Strange.*
Hollie
*Oshikuru would shake his frozen arm, and a yellow glow would emit from his right hand as he healed it. His weapon would be strapped to his back*

Jennie
"The wolves were bigger than expected. Perhaps I shall wear one of their skulls as a mask. Let's continue"
Arthur
"I suppose we can continue"

*She said, recollecting herself after... Just sitting there. She wasn't too keen on skinning the animals just yet. Too much of a stressful situation*
Leonard
*Going forward, you all would climb up what seemed to be North, using your intuition alone to guide yourselves up the lonely hill. It seemed to stretch on for hundreds of meters, some parts being incredibly steep. As you scaled the hill, the temperature of the surrounding area would also decrease as the atmosphere thinned, while also including a significant boost in the amount of snowfall as the hillsides thinned out into a plateau. You wouldn't be able to see too far into the plain, but you would be able to see a dark hole somewhere off in the distance. Theron, your thermal vision would catch a faint heat signature in the snow, lying beyond that dark hole. It would pulsate occasionally, possibly the sign of a living person within that enclosure.*

*If you scanned the plain, you would see nothing of interest, albeit the occasional miners tool and workers axe. There would be a couple of loose logs sticking out from under the various piles upon piles of snow, along with what seemed to be the rusted hilts of multiple blades. It seemed that there was a sort of group that had been here before you all, but their bodies would not be found anywhere. The originator of that roar would be hidden from sight and sound as well, leaving no trace of its existence.*
Arthur
*Ein was... Rather nervous. She wasn't exactly too cold yet, but expect that to change in the near future. She of course spotted the rusted metal and axes. Hmm maybe she could borrow those and smelt them down...*
Al
"Be careful. There's something under the snow, in that area. Could be a trap or a survivor... I'm not quite sure, as I can't see it clearly."

*Theron made sure to warn his group, point his short-sword at the thing he saw underneath the snow... Possibly one of his allies could interact with it without getting into trouble.*
Jennie
"I can test it with my weapon. Though I'm not sure if I should do that in case it's a survivor. What do you guys think? My judgement isn't the best"
Hollie
*He was aware of everything that he could see. Rusted swords, various tools and something that small man saw. Knowing yetis, it was probably a trap, but he wasn't sure*
Al
"Since this yeti has encamped here for quite some time... I believe we should treat it as a trap. A normal person's body wouldn't be this warm if they were stuck under all that snow for a extended amount of time. Take a stab at it or use some magic."

*Theron nodded to himself, then waited for one of the other to act accordingly. His short-sword would put him way too close to whatever was lurking under there... And an arrow from his bow would probably just get stuck in the snow.*
Hollie
*He throws his glaive to the spot the area that small man pointed to*
Leonard
*Oshikuru, who had thrown the glaive, would watch as it sailed through the air, the aerodynamics of the weapon being shown in its entirety. It tore through the falling snow, landing inside the pile of snow that contained the heat signature Theron had witnessed earlier. Snow being snow, the cold steel of the spear would meet the cold whiteness of the hill, sinking deep into the pile, landing with a muffled 'thunk.' It had certainly hit something, though what was it? Was it a man or beast? You would not be able to tell, seeing that the three of you were still a good distance away from the dark hole that marred the hillside.*

*Soon, however, Theron would be able to notice a small pool of blood growing ever larger. It would start out as a small dot, then growing to a size of a fist, and then morphing and spreading to the size of a puddle. The crimson of the fluid would eventually corrupt the harsh pure ness of the white snow, causing the pile it was in to become enveloped in a dark shade of red. As you looked closer, you would notice the absence of tracks and footprints that you had found earlier. Surely, even in this weather, the creatures that had dragged the source of the blood trail up the mountain would leave some kind of markings, especially considering the time it took for the three of you to climb the mountain. Bipedal figures, no matter what kind, could not scale such a mountain in a quick fashion, unless they were especially trained as such.*
Al
*Theron shrugged to himself, since this most likely the yeti's doing. He heard these things were defensive, but it was just letting them walk all over the place... Quite uncharacteristic. It could become a large problem.*

"Whatever it's planning, it sure is quite the enigma. We should possibly proceed to the dark hole... Might be a mining shaft of some sorts that it took to become a den or hoard."

*Theron then continued forth, short-sword drawn, to check out whatever the hell it was that Oshi just stabbed.*
Jennie
"Whoops. Watch out"
Hollie
*Whoops. Seemed like he hit something. He wasn't sure whether it was man or beast, but he didn't really care. He was a killer, after all. He would recall his weapon, now covered in blood*
Arthur
*She was still rather sceptical. This was the perfect weather for an ambush. Snowy, the visibility is crap. Perfect! She remained near the group so... Being singled out was rather hard. Wonder what'll happen next?*
