She didn't know what the situation was like outside, were there still so many people outside? Are those damned black dogs still constantly sniffing for her trace on the snow? Wouldn't that Robina from Black Sky have gotten more and more helpers?
Avici's mind was half awake and half asleep.
She could only wait, leaving fate up to God. If the people from the Geometry Service didn't find her before the enemy did, then what awaited her may be a fate even crueler than death.

Several days later…
In the sky above the snowy peaks, several pitch black flying birds kept darting around, patrolling the scene beneath them. The birds were as big as sparrows, but eerily, they had two front limbs like scythes, like a sharp tweezer.
They swam through the savage winds soundlessly, as though they were barely affected by the force of the wind at all.
