How does the natural setting contribute to the meaning of the story?
In just a short amount of time, the force of nature manages to erase a generations-old feud between the main characters. By trapping the men, it interferes in their affairs and prompts a complete reversal of the feelings of hate and greed the men once harbored. Nature however is indifferent to the petty squabbles of men. Both men realize that their personal problems hold no meaning in the natural world.
