"1000 miles left people! Come on, we so close!" Raven stated in order to make his teammates feel better.
Although he himself didn't feel any encouragement from his own words, he figured that he should still remind them about this. Anything works so long as they could reach their destination.
Obviously, a few weeks passed and the team was doing their best to reach the peak as soon as they could. They encountered spikes and increases in pressure which delayed them even further but the team powered through them and were nearly adjusted themselves at the increased pressure within 1000 miles distance away from the peak.
Looking at the faces of his teammates, Raven sighed to himself. It was obvious that all of them, including him were battered. It was as if they've been fighting against an endless wave of enemies all this time without any rest.
