"Thirty minutes ago?" She frowned. "Twenty? I'm not sure." She looked fractic at the idea that her husband could've been out in the cold longer than was livable. It was indeed quite chilly, enough that after twenty minutes or so one's skin would begin to freeze. An hour out here without proper attire would be a death sentence.

Cade dismounted as well, leading Justus out in front of the cart, where he staked the animal's reins to the ground.

As Graicus inspected the cart he could see the axel was broken in half. It had probably struck a paving stone when leaving the raod and the entire weight of the cart bearing down on it had caused it to snap. It would likely need to be replaced entirely once they got to a town, but it would possible to rig up a makeshift, temporary replacement in the meantime.

"What do you want to do, Gracius?" Cade asked, inspecting the evergreen grove from afar. "One of us can search for the husband and the horse, and the other can get this cart back onto the road.  The quicker we do both the less chance of these people freezing."
