The beginning part is presumably during the camping trip that Ceo, Graeme, and Colin are leaving to go on. What is unclear is how the female character Ellie gets involved, what is the true purpose of the axe and what happens at campresent while the two were off getting firewood? This sounds like a formula for disaster and I wouldn't mind finding out how it concludes.
