Ein's group traveled nonstop for four hours straight and soon approached an unbelievable scene. Rather than raging fire eating the forest, it was an ice field. A thick and heavy fog covered the whole place, making it hard to see further than a few meters.
The elves, who were wearing leather armor, were the most affected by the cold. They shivered as the heat got sucked away from their bodies. Their breaths were as white as the fog around them.
"Where's the dragon?" Ein quickly wondered. "And where is Lilith?"
Ein did tell Lilith to buy time for the group, but seeing the current scene spreading in front of him, Ein started doubting her self-proclaimed "inability to kill other beings".
"N-NO!" A random elf soldier exclaimed in anguish.
In front of her, a frozen figure of another female elf could be seen. The frozen elf was stuck in a position of running from something, with a fierce expression on her face.
