Thanks for the picture! Big Grin

all the anguish you suppressed

While Claudius waited, Liliana disappeared in a flash. She spoke quickly and then dashed out of the hut, leaving Claudius wondering where or why she had gone. His questions were answered soon after. She returned a few minutes later, slightly out of breath, but with a large piece of metal with many holes in it. He saw her roll it into her hut and then set it over the fire. Claudiuses’ eyes sparked with recognition when he realized what it was for. What a good idea! With this contraption, they could put the bucket on top of the fire to melt the snow. He wasn’t sure if they would be able to lift the tub up that high – maybe they would have to empty out some of the snow back into the buckets? He wasn’t sure, so he waited to see if Liliana had anything else to say.

When she asked him if he thought it would work, he nodded enthusiastically. He frowned halfway through, still wondering if the two of them would be able to lift the metal tub up. It looked rather heavy, after all.

Liliana seemed to be thinking the same thing when she suggested lifting it up. He quickly agreed with a quiet, “okay,” and then moved to help her lift it up. She moved to one side and Claudius took the other. He bent down over his side of the tub and looked for a way to hold it and haul it up and onto the metal.

“Okay, on th-th-three. One… t-t-two… th-three!” He pulled up, using his legs to help him lift the tub.
