Its rays washed away to persistent chill they had felt whilst within that hellish world behind them. Not to say that the lightning filled wasteland before them looked all too welcoming.
In fact it could be argued that this environment was worse. For at least in the past section you only had to look out for ambushes. Here you had to worry about that on top of the real risk of being struck by a bolt from above. As demonstrated when they witnessed the giant trunked beast they witnessed earlier barrel its way through the cracked ground only to let loose a trumpet of pain when it was struck by a bolt of lightning.
The beast only paused long enough for the electricity to run its course before it too continued forwards towards its goal.
Without further ado Violet and Luna followed suit and began to journey forwards.
