Amid the wreckage, Cork and Jenny discover an old trappers cabin where they find the body of a teenage girl. She wasnt killed by the storm, however; shed been bound and tortured before she died. Whimpering sounds coming from outside the cabin lead them to a tangle of branches toppled by the vicious winds.
