Minseok looked around the cave, his eyes distant as if trying to make sense of something. "This is Earth?" he muttered, more to himself than to the others.
The group nodded desperately, still on their knees, afraid to move or even breathe too loudly. They had been answering his questions for a while now, each word trembling from their lips. He seemed deep in thought, paying them little attention.
The porter, Jin-Hyu, nudged Minseok's side, signaling for him to do something. Minseok hesitated, unsure of what to do, then nudged Hannah, the healer beside him. She shot him a panicked look, her eyes wide with fear.
"Wait, why me?" she whispered, her voice barely audible. Minseok and Jin-Hyu both looked at her, pleading with their eyes. Taking a deep, shaky breath, she spoke up, her voice quivering.
"M-Master, may we ask something?" she stuttered, her words coming out in a rush.
