"Valencio, can you do your tremor thing to open up a crevasse under us?"
You can't see his face under that mask, but he seems to be staring at you in disbelief.
"Wait, from in here? Through the autowagon??"
"Yeah, couldn't you like, channel the tremor through the wheels or something?"
A slight bump from the outside makes Craig whimper a bit. C'mon, Valencio, you can do this, stop being too cautious, those froststalkers are getting bolder and more desperate.
"I'll try, though I should note that I've never tried anything of this sort before... I hope the autowagon can take it!"
He then crouches inside the cabin, and puts his palm on the floor. Then, you feel the vibrations resonating from under your seat, at the same time a loud, cracking sound ensues outside, one which swallows the surprised and panicked yelps of the froststalkers.
"By the bones!"
Valencio muttered as an entire canyon of a crevasse remained behind you, and the froststalkers are nowhere to be seen.
"Sweet Gongalla, it works!"
You can't believe how lucky you are, as the autowagon still continues on its way smoothly. A bit early and you could plummet with your ex-pursuers.
"Don't celebrate just yet, I see a gust of flashfrost ahead! Huddle up, drink something warm, or tough it out!"
Ling's warning reminded you that indeed, the North's number one danger are its weather. In the cabin, you see that Craig is hugging you from the side even tighter; Valencio opens up a bottle of aquavit - or something even more potent - from his inventory, and Nemo's still just observing. You guess Ling's gonna try and tough it out, but then again, maybe she could dodge the freezing wind?
What would your survival strategy be?
