Chương 678: Your Will is Mine

"Wait-wait a minute! You're going to Laudarkvik?!" Elduin spluttered as he spotted the gloomy city in the distance. He was so shocked that he forgot about his airsickness and the freezing high altitude wind chilling his bones.

There was plenty to be uneasy about. Jake had never seen such a baleful city.

To begin with, Laudarkvik was brightly lit only one or two hours a day. The rest of the time, the thick layer of black clouds shrouding the entire southern part of the Empire plunged the city and its countryside into total darkness. Flying from Lodunvals to Laudarkvik had taken him through such a pitch black region and without an outstanding visual acuity it was undeniably terrifying.

This was not to say that the city was very well lit during the scarce periods of daylight. The sunlight shedding on Laudarkvik was rather weak, like a winter's day in the late afternoon.
