Melville once spoke of a certain whale as having a hump like a snow-hill. The rises in the local ice aren't quite as big as a sperm whale's hump, but they're certainly large enough to afford a little concealment. It'll take some creeping up and peering around, but when that's been accomplished, whoever peers out first is going to notice:
- the form of an extremely large and extremely advanced-looking helicopter at rest on the ice; - a widely spaced ring of torches, their flames high and bright; - a not-so-widely-spaced ring of men in dark winter gear, carrying guns of varying sizes and capacities, and - a brazier mounted on a tripod, burning with clear green flames that do indeed smell like the gym socks of something supernatural.
Close by the brazier are two other men, one in a military greatcoat embellished with metallic embroidery along the edges (mostly occult symbols which the Squirrel might have seen before), and one looking very much as if he's become far too familiar with the many uses of duct tape recently for his liking.
