Pressed tightly against one another, in an effort to resist the cold, our heads empty and heavy, our brains a whirlwind of decay
nikdorinn [45]

Explanation:

1. Adjective that is best describing the atmosphere in this passage is ''never-ending''. It is showing the readers how the people are feeling about their situation which is also causing a never-ending night. The night was growing longer because of their numb minds and they were questioning themselves when they will die.

2. ''Our minds numb with indifference.'' is the excerpt from the passage that is revealing the atmosphere because the people in the story are indifferent. They are not afraid of death anymore because they know that they will die sooner or later. They are only questioning themselves when will that happen but they are also knowing that it does not matter when. They don't feel any emotions because they had surrendered.

3. This numb atmosphere of the story is showing us the meaning of it. People had found themselves in cold place and they stick together in order to survive the coldness. Their heads are heavy and they are remembering things. The author is showing that in those difficult situation people get indifferent and they can stop worrying about life. At the end of the passage, we can see that their thoughts are not good because they are making the situation even harder for them and causing never-ending night. The more they think, the more night is growing.
