Madan and Kouske refrained from jumping to conclusions and patiently searched the whole glacier cave from top to bottom, again and again.
They searched every inch of the cave without giving up. They even dug up the icy walls and the hard frozen ground to search for the flame.
However, even after spending such a long time inside the cave, they were unable to find the flame or even any clue about it.
Finally, Anya spoke up. "You guys continue searching. Let me have a chat with the village chief first. Maybe something changed?"
The other three also nodded in agreement. She left the cave to search for the small settlement. However, weirdly, she was once again lost.
No matter how much she combed the mountains, she was not able to find those small yurts, the old village chief, and the handful of people.
