The same eerie laugh wakes both Keroli and Kelt. As Keroli's eyes open, keroli's gaze immediately goes to the window.
He sees the soldiers and the two men outside, but he can't make sense of what's happening.
He rubs his eyes, still feeling drowsy, as his vision remains blurry and his eyes refuse to fully open.
After rubbing his eyes, Keroli looks around and notices people standing by the windows, watching the scene outside.
He turns his head back and sees that Kelt is awake, draping her blanket over Ryver due to the cold. Seeing this, Keroli lightly touches Helek's hand.
"What's happening?" Keroli asks Helek.
Helek is about to respond when a boy standing near their seat interrupts.
"They've put those men out there as bait. And you know, they were going to take you instead. You're lucky you escaped."
Hearing this, Keroli looks out the window again. Could the soldiers really be searching for survivors?
