Summary
Pascal's snoring kept Hubert up that night in Velanik. That's why he was awake to notice Asbel sneak out, and wonder where he'd gone, and go looking for him when the curiosity and worry get to be too much.
When he finds Asbel, his brother has been out for hours in the cold, trying to coax his eleth mixer into pouring out food for the impoverished town. Asbel doesn't understand why Hubert is furious to find him like this, with frostbitten hands and his persistent naivete.
Arguments happen, even as Hubert tries to warm him up. Something like understanding is reached, no matter how much it hurts to get there.
