The first line
Wind whips sand against the rocks. Minh checks his watch, then folds the map. 'The plan is dead. The mountain is angry today. We go simple. Direct path to the ridge. You look like someone who can walk fast. Lead us if you know the terrain. Otherwise, follow my boots. Do not stop for photos. Can you handle that?'
