Similar to Reyes, all the other factions hunting for the Elemental Beast also received a parchment. If one were to pay attention to the sky in Coastal City, they'd notice several birds flying in all directions. It was a rare sight because, due to the cold atmosphere, birds could hardly be seen in Coastal City.
However, for some reason, the sky was suddenly filled with birds. Entirely black, the crows' wings beat in unison as they flew in different directions. The residents of Coastal City pointed and gasped, their faces filled with a mix of confusion and amazement.
A kid, seeing the crows for the first time, asked his parents what they were.
"They're crows, sweetie," she replied, her eyes fixed on the sky. "But I've never seen so many before. And in this cold weather, it's even stranger."
Hushed whispers and gasps filled the streets of Coastal City that day, and the citizens would continue to talk about the crows for several days.
