Lucas looked at Belle who didn't appear to be awake even after hours had passed by in the land of the Bonelake. He wore the coat he had picked up and looked at the space in front of him, raising his hand when he heard Barron speak,
"Once they know you are in the land of the dead, they are going to come for you."
He was aware of that, the scent he had worked on disappearing to keep himself low would return once he would step in the realm of the dead, "We don't know if Belle's soul has drifted to the other side. The longer she stays there, the weaker her vessel will turn out to be such that the soul that has gone in wandering will start turning to decay and die to be part of that place."
