It had taken a while, but Nox and Levi completely got rid of all the Nightlings.
Luckily, no other Eclipsed had been drawn in by the residual SE in the air… which might've been a good thing, or a very bad thing, depending on the reason why.
But that didn't mean they didn't have to move, since they didn't know whether or not the Eclipsed would suddenly change their minds and start approaching.
"Let's find a place to set camp," Elias said as he and Lorenne walked towards the duo.
Lorenne clutched her book closer. "Preferably somewhere with walls. Many, many walls."
"Yeah," Nox muttered, scanning the dark forest, "somewhere where we can only expect attacks for a single spot."
Levi landed silently beside them, his feet barely making a sound. He pointed toward the east, into a thicker part of the forest.
"You saw something?" Elias asked.
He gave a small nod and immediately started walking towards that direction.
