The group had a surprisingly successful day, managing to locate 35 of the 50 missing survivors. This achievement brought a sense of relief and cautious optimism to the group. They had ventured into the search with troubled hearts, fearing the worst possible outcomes. Finding such a significant number of survivors was more than they had dared to hope for.
However, the day was not without its troubles. They also confirmed the deaths of ten other survivors. This news was met with grief and regret, as each loss was deeply felt. Despite this, the overall outcome was better than anticipated. Matthew's group, having prepared themselves for a potentially much more devastating situation, found peace in knowing they had saved many lives and brought some measure of safety to those who had survived.
