"No humans in the Sakend plane?!"
"No settlements," Snowball clarified. "But scattered humans do exist—just extremely, extremely rare. Most cling to the protection of major races or… live in very poor circumstances."
Lilith's heart sank to the bottom. No human power meant no kin to rely on.If she truly were the only human in this plane… the loneliness made her shiver.
She couldn't delay. "I have to go."
"Ah? My lady, where are you going?" Snowball asked in a panic.
Lilith gazed at the vast, bleak world outside the ice hut, trying to imitate the poise her father wore when he commanded all under heaven.
She forced a deep, solemn tone. "To measure the breadth of this world, to follow where the stars point, to witness—"
"Witness what?" Snowball asked, curious.
By the time he finished the question, Lilith had already turned into a streak of starlight and shot into the wind and snow.
She really couldn't keep improvising that speech.
