Indoor duties were supposed to be as boring as usual, but when Irene entered the library, she saw more apprentices and even a few knights including her father. She was immediately faced with the terrible realization that they still had to participate in the winterization that year.
"We will have to organize ourselves better than last year to ensure that it is done properly this season," Sir Gunnar explained as his greyish eyes scanned over the group in the library.

In the meantime, we will scour the foothills each day before we finally go up into the rocky mountains and seek out cave systems."
