Inside the cave, Stefanie, Fiora, and Audrey huddled together. All three of them were exhausted. They had been chased by Jeric's group for the past few days and could only hide.
At that moment, they were shivering from the cold and feeling hungry. Their mounts were also already dead.
"We need to keep moving, Stefanie. That guy's probably going to catch up with us soon," said Fiora weakly. "I don't have any strength left to run. I want to sleep!" Stefanie was struggling to keep her eyes open.
"You can't sleep right now, Stefanie. Just hold on a little longer!" Audrey promptly shook Stefanie, keeping her awake. However, Stefanie eventually closed her eyes.
"Stefanie! Stefanie!" Audrey shook Stefanie even more violently, but the latter didn't react.
