The character was stuck inside the snowstorm. Luckily they discovered a cave and they sheltered in it. It was a bear cave and the characters used a steam ejector to kill the bear. Although the bear’s meat was not tasty, but still the character managed to survive in the cave. The character got tendons and a great fur from the bear. He went back to the village and made the fur into a warm coat and the tendon into a steam gun. This made him one of the few people who were able to participate in trading and hunting. What’s more, he was a professional hunter. The coal mine collapsed in the village and the villagers would be killed if they could not find alternative coal supply. One of the most experienced hunter in the village was killed by a fallen stone. Villagers were frustrated and they decided that hunters and fighters were not allowed to enter the mine since then because they could not trade with other villages if all those people were killed. The character was asked to go out the village and trade with other villages for coal. The character discovered dead fish on the ice of the huge lake, and he suspected that the water in the lake was frozen all together because dead fish was not likely to appear on the ice of a lake if there was water under the icy surface. He then suggested that the earth was also frozen both inside and outside and it could not provide heat for the villagers anymore. The good news was that the villagers could forage on the lake that there was plenty of fish. The Well in the village was built as a potential alternative source of heat, but since the character was suspecting the reliability of the earth, he managed to convince others to deploy an elevator in the well so that he could enter it and figure out what was happening inside the well.
