It was already nighttime. The stars were nowhere to be found. Nor was the moon present to set the mood. Kai didn't care that he was walking around fully naked holding a similarly naked woman in his arms.
He only cared for her safety. Fortunately, no one roamed around this place. The residents were too afraid to walk around at night.
His gaze stayed focused with each step he took. The sound of the flowing river was the loudest. He was grateful for it but also felt annoyed at how polluted it was.
With all the corpses lying around, he was uncertain about the consumption value of the water. He looked around trying to find a cave or anywhere that could shelter them.
The shift in the air was apparent with every second that passed by. Dark clouds loomed over their heads. He cursed lowly, at how unlucky he was.
He would be domed if he let his mate get wet. He walked a few more kilometres and finally saw the cave tucked at a corner that wasn't obvious.
