Somewhere in the Barren Wastelands, approximately an hour ago.
The barren wastelands flashed across the jeep windows like a panoramic shot as Ms. Croft silently stared at it. It had been so long since she last came out of the Rogue Shelter that the view of the barren wastelands was like something new to her. Nevertheless, it didn't make it interesting since Ms. Croft was definitely watching the scenic view in a state of boredom. For the most part of their travel, she was trying so hard not to ask The Question since it would only provide annoyance to the driver but she couldn't withhold it anymore.
"No, just a few more seconds." Ms. Croft reminded herself as she stared at the tablet that Wilder Barnes brought with them. At first, Ms. Croft couldn't believe the time displayed on the top right of the steampunk-themed tablet. She hesitantly turned her head and gave another glance at it.
There was no doubt about it.
