"You don't know?"
Lek was startled, and seeing Wei'er shake her head, he said, "It wasn't even dawn when the Winter Knight brigade came over and said that the aftermath of an Origin Disaster would strike today, causing widespread panic. After all, the memory of the wind disaster from ten years ago is still fresh."
"But they also said that the Lord of the City, being kind-hearted, has allowed all residents of Grey Stone Street to take refuge within the walls of Winter City. Of course, you can choose to stay on Grey Stone Street and await death, but surely no one would be that foolish."
Wei'er frowned and said, "Are the high-ranking people of Winter City really that benevolent?"
"Who knows."
