Well, maybe. Unless it hasn't always been like this. But I don't imagine we'll find out any time soon.

[It would make sense for this place to be poorly equipped for this climate if there hadn't previously been a need to be but that's conjecture at this point and Cissnei's trying to avoid getting too far into that, especially with someone she's still getting to know.

There's plenty she could say about the houses. But she knows already he's not enjoying that shelter right now and there's no need to rub that in.]

It could be worse, that's true. I guess we can just use this experience as an excuse to strengthen ourselves in ways we wouldn't have thought to before.

[A nice thought, even if it never happens.]
