The guards passed beneath her, their eyes scanning the ground for any signs of intrusion. Their flashlights danced around, but somehow, they failed to look up, their gaze skimming over her hidden form.
She let out a silent sigh of relief, her heart pounding in her ears.
Once the guards moved out of sight, Lilith resumed her climb, inching her way to the top of the wall. With a final burst of determination, she pulled herself over the edge, her body trembling with a mixture of exhaustion and excitement.
Fortunately, she was able to climb down the high walls without killing herself.
Once her feet reached the ground, with cautious steps, she disappeared into the night, leaving behind the confines of her old life in pursuit of the truth and a future she could shape on her own terms.
As she ventured further away from the tall walls of the old castle, she moved swiftly and quietly, ensuring she left no traces of her presence.
