"Gloom Falls."
Those words were all Oli could focus on.
The rest of the world was a blur. From Oli's perspective, they were chasing an infinite horizon, and it wouldn't take long to catch it thanks to Lord Uutrai's unbelievable speed.
"... We'll be there shortly."
"Alreadyyy!?"
Oli's answer was slurred by the buffeting winds, despite ducking his head and body against the dragon lord's back.
"Yes. It's as I said. It would be futile for you to follow me with your adolescent cultivation."
Uutrai's bold chuckle rolled with the wind. He kept his eyes forward and his nose straight. Never did he bother to scan the world passing him by.
As for Oli, he struggled to keep his eyes open, let alone guess how far they had traveled.
All he knew was that the dragon lord had somehow turned hours into minutes and minutes into seconds.
Eventually, Oli's eyelids flapped like mad as the wind pressure declined.
