Your friends aren't going to find you," Daniel said. "And the nights are getting cold. It'll be a race between hypothermia and dehydration, see which kills you first."We paused a moment, letting that sink in, then I said, "Are you sure you don't want to talk to us?"Moreno rolled his eyes, still looking amused."He'll think it's a lot less funny by morning," I said to Daniel.

In a tense moment, Daniel expresses concern about their friend Moreno, emphasizing the dangerous conditions outside. He highlights the looming threats of hypothermia and dehydration as the cold nights progress, positioning the situation as a dire race between the two dangers. As they reflect on his situation, the gravity of his isolation settles in, prompting the group to contemplate their next move.
The conversation reveals a sense of urgency and underlying worry for Moreno's well-being. Despite Daniel's serious tone, Moreno remains indifferent, even amused, to their plight. Determined to check on him later, the group decides to reconvene in the morning, hopeful that Moreno's attitude may shift by then as they grapple with the harsh realities of their environment.
