Story Scene: The Highland Hearth

Location: A remote, seaside meadow camping site on the Isle of Skye in the Scottish Highlands. Backed by ancient black basalt cliffs, facing the turbulent Inner Hebrides Sea. The ground is damp moss and short grass.

Character:

Alison: The protagonist is a resilient and experienced Scottish Highland hiker and outdoor guide, familiar with the harsh local environment. Practical, efficient, and with a hint of aloof humor.

Finn: A client led by Alison, a young photographer from the city who yearns for wilderness but has limited experience. I have a passionate personality, but at this moment, I am feeling a bit embarrassed and depressed due to the bad weather.

(Background) Highland sheep: Black highland sheep grazing in the wind and rain can be faintly seen on the distant grassy slope.

Time: In the late summer evening, a sudden and violent storm swept through the highlands. The wind is howling (the wind speed may reach 40-50 km/h), and the cold rainstorm pours down, sometimes with hail. The temperature dropped sharply to near freezing point. The sky is as dark as ink.

Scene unfolding:

The fierce wind roared like an angry giant over the exposed surface of Skye Island, and the cold rain pounded Alison and Finn's faces horizontally, causing pain. They had just awkwardly set up a barely wind resistant tent, soaked through and shivering from the cold. The originally planned seaside bonfire dinner and starry sky shooting were completely ruined. Finn shrank into his trench coat, his teeth trembling. "Ai... Alison, this terrible weather! Not to mention taking photos, I feel like I'm freezing into a Loch Ness monster! Can we just eat cold sandwiches now

Alison wiped the rain off her face, her eyes still sharp: 'Highland weather is like the temper of highland people, changing at will. Cold sandwiches? No, highland people don't bow down to storms.' She quickly pulled out a flat rectangular 'card clip' made of thick stainless steel sheets from the side pocket of her waterproof backpack. Even in dim light, the metal emits a cold and reliable luster.

Finn looked at the flat "metal folder" with a puzzled expression. "This... this?" "Our 'ark,'" Alison replied briefly, braving the strong wind and quickly operating in a relatively sheltered (but still stormy) rock depression in front of the tent lobby. I saw her playing like a puzzle, accurately inserting and locking several large stainless steel plates with precision slots and protrusions into each other. No screws or complex tools are needed, relying solely on the sturdy insert structure itself. In less than two minutes, a structurally stable and square burning platform stood tall in the wind and rain! The chassis and the four wall insert structure remained motionless in the strong wind, emitting a low buzzing sound as if mocking the harsh weather.

What surprised Finn the most was the top of the fire table - it was made up of several stainless steel plates that were also fixed by inserts to form a huge grid plane, with an area large enough to easily hold two large frying pans! This... this is a moving barbecue grill! "Exclaimed Finn. Alison quickly lit the ignition material at the bottom of the burning platform to avoid the wind (using a windproof lighter and a special fuel block), while saying, "It is first and foremost our fire pit, providing warmth and saving lives. But on high ground, the ability of the fire pit to roast things is the real skill." The flames, protected by the sturdy "wall" of the burning platform, stubbornly burned and began to dispel the coldness and moisture near the entrance hall.

Alison magically took out a small frying pan and fresh salmon chunks in sealed packaging (a local specialty). On stormy days, it's a great time to eat hot highland salmon! "She placed the frying pan firmly on the huge barbecue grill. The structure design of the fire burning platform is exquisite, and the flame heat is effectively directed towards the top grille. Even in the wind and rain, the frying pan quickly heats up, and the salmon emits an enticing sizzling sound. Oil drips into the flames below, creating an enticing aroma that instantly overwhelms the wet and cold scent of the rain. At the same time, the burning platform itself serves as an efficient fire pit, continuously radiating strong heat, turning the tent lobby into a warm little harbor. Finn was finally able to take off his wet and cold gloves, reach out to the warm firelight, and his face regained its color.

The wind and rain are still raging outside the tent, and the sound of waves crashing against the cliffs is rumbling. But under that small tent foyer, the fire burning platform "Ark" became the absolute core of the storm. Bright flames jump within the sturdy stainless steel walls, and on the huge grille, golden salmon emits a mouth watering glow and aroma. Finn set up his camera, no longer attempting to capture the starry sky, but instead facing the vibrant scene before him: against a wild natural backdrop, this "warm ark" constructed by human intelligence (insert structure) and reliable material (stainless steel) is fearlessly burning, cooking, and warming. The jumping flames illuminated Alison's resolute profile and Finn's revitalized eyes, as well as the surrounding wet rocks and moss, creating a wild and warm scene.

Alison shared the grilled salmon with Finn. The hot food, combined with the warmth of the campfire, dispelled the chill in my bones. Did you see that, Finn? "Alison patted the stainless steel wall of the burning platform, which was cold but heated by the flames. The firewood burning in the burning platform crackled like a warm heartbeat.
