You are with friends in a forest at night. It is winter & snow covers the ground.
Wolves growl just beyond the faint light of your candles.
You are cold, hungry, & afraid.
You discover a wooden summer house in a glade. It is open & well-stocked.
Safety.
Then one of your friends runs inside, locks the door, & eats all the food.
Another sets fire to the house & dances joyfully in the warmth.
Sparks fly & ignite the trees.
You are hot, hungry, & afraid.
