Wolfe headed North into the Frozen Wastes in search of the remainder of the unit that Priya was certain was nearby, creeping through the trees on the same path that he took yesterday.
The idea was that he would retrace their steps in the snow and follow them back to the camp. Failing that, he would follow the tracks left by their vehicles, which were impossible to miss, but also much easier to track him along since the ground had been churned and softened.
The army wasn't the only danger around, and in Wolfe's estimation, they might not even be the biggest danger in the area, so he had to be careful not to let anything else track his movement while he hunted.
He stopped at the same stand of trees where he had fired from last night to check the site and see if anyone had come to check on the missing soldiers this morning but found only ash piled on the dirt and mostly undisturbed snow.
