Nox woke up completely unaware of how many days had passed with the barrier still covering them.
Though, the first thing he opened his eyes to was a bunch of Eclipsed..
Turns out, Lorenne was the only reason other Eclipsed weren't approaching this place, since they sensed bigger threats.
The Nightlings were exceptions, since they were like rats who had no sense of fear, only guided by their hunger for SE.
But now that Lorenne was dead and with the amount of SE and Umbra energy hanging in the air, Eclipsed were bound to be attracted to this part of the forest.
Nox didn't really recall what happened after he 'died', except the fact that he felt himself burning, for hours unending...or maybe it was even days.
The burning originated from his chest and it got worse as the seconds passed.
The next time he reopened his eyes, he was laying face first in the forest floor, Levi and Elias's corpse were by his side and he was surrounded by a golden barrier.
