The walls were covered with cobwebs, and there was an inch of dust on a wooden altar table, indicating that it had been a long time since anyone had been here.
Although the room provided some shelter from the wind, water was still leaking in through the roof. Several people squeezed together, sitting in a pile while wringing out their clothes.
"This cursed weather, so unlucky!"
"Hey! If it weren't for those Imperial Army soldiers, we wouldn't be soaked to the bone hiding in the alley."
While there was lightning and thunder outside, the people inside were gathered around a fire, chatting comfortably.
Mantis glanced at the door and said, "This rain won't last long. See, it's still sunny over there."
Sure enough, the rain came quickly and left just as fast. Their clothes were not yet dry when the rain stopped.
