That day, the group decided to set camp in the area they were in. Even though the earthquakes were still a huge threat to them and they even caused the death of a few of the students.
But, that was by far the best location to spend the night at. It wasn't completely split open with cracks and it had a relatively high altitude that helped solve the problem. Besides, most of the students were heavily injured or exhausted and they could barely move around to even travel anywhere.
So, they set their camps and campfires for the night. Before leaving the gymnasium, they brought along with them all the things they would need to spend nights outside in the cold. It wasn't the best set of tools, but they were good enough for the time being.
