Dion and Valka placed their ears on the boulder that acted as a perfect makeshift door, and listened to the sound from outside. Everywhere was eerie silent with the occasional howl of beasts and singing of insects keeping the night lively.
"I guess we are good," Dion whispered, and Valka nodded in response.
Both of them gripped the boulder firmly, their muscles straining as they slowly pulled it backward, the sound of scraping against the floor muffled to the best of their abilities. With cautious glances, they peered around, ensuring the coast was clear before stepping out into the open.
The night sky was a breathtaking sight, adorned with glittering stars that seemed to twinkle against the dark canvas. A chilly wind whispered through the air, sending shivers down Dion's spine.
