In Long Lake Town, although Lann and Bard were heroes who fought against Smaug, after welcoming them and confirming the death of the evil dragon once again, people still had to busy themselves with the difficult living conditions at hand.
Last night, it indeed snowed, but the fire in Long Lake Town was so intense that the heat melted the snow above the town, leaving only falling ash-gray wood ashes, which is why Lann and Bard did not notice.
However, the snow at night had already covered part of River Valley City in white, and the snow line on the upper half of the Lonely Mountain seemed to have extended downwards quite a bit.
Now, after the snow, the temperature was cold, mixed with humidity. This group of townsfolk had just gone through repeated scares and were mostly malnourished before.
If nothing was done, it seemed that some people wouldn't be able to hold on.
"I wonder, why don't we go inside the Lonely Mountain?"
