A Hurtful Spending of Points

"Hey, you're still awake? I thought we needed rest for tomorrow." Irina called out to Aldrin from inside the tent they set up in their camp.

Unlike yesterday where they found a cave to safely pass the night, they're currently in the middle of the sea of trees, high up inside a carved area of a gigantic tree, somewhat similar to the baobab trees but thicker trunk, to pass the dangerous night.

The tree was dubbed 'Havensteps Tree', the last known landmark before the unexplored territories further north of the Dimension. It's called that simply because of the natural steps on its trunk. One could even reach the top of the tree by taking all three hundred steps and scout on what's waiting for them in at most five kilometers.
