Chief Welta, his face wreathed in smiles, strode quickly toward Feng Mountain with an enthusiastic welcome. His hearty laughter seemed powerful enough to dispel the chill of the frozen landscape.
The Elder Chief opened his arms wide and gave Feng Mountain a big hug, patting his back as he spoke warmly.
"Feng, my distinguished friend, even though you've arrived early, I'm so happy to see you!"
With that, Chief Welta gestured for him to follow and personally led Feng Mountain toward a tent.
Feng Mountain followed the Chief, pushed aside a curtain made of animal bones and colorful feathers, and bent down to enter the tent.
As soon as he stepped inside, a wave of warmth washed over him.
The space inside the tent was quite spacious. A bonfire burned in the center, its leaping flames constantly licking at the air above, making CRACKLING and POPPING sounds. Sparks flew out from time to time, adding a lively atmosphere to the whole tent.
