When Arthur arrived at the cave, he got off his snowmobile and entered. He had been lucky to find the cave at all; otherwise, things could have ended badly for him. Arthur simply hadn’t dressed adequately for the weather. As soon as the storm passed, he would have to return to the research center.
Thinking of His Daughter
In that moment, Arthur thought of his daughter, Emily. He blamed himself, realizing that it could have been too late, leaving his daughter to grow up without a father. His daughter meant more to him than his research.
After some time, the storm weakened, the clouds cleared, and the sky reemerged. It must have been quite some time since the storm started, as a snowstorm usually lasts at least four hours. Arthur looked around and blinked as he recognized the sun.
Emerging from the Cave
He waited another thirty minutes to ensure that everything was indeed alright. Then, he began his journey back to the camp. He needed warmer clothing to capture the creature; this was still his plan.
