Razed lands stretched as far in the distance as Kieran could see.
Because of the miasma's density, that distance was disturbingly small. It wasn't an exaggeration to say Kieran was almost blind out here. Walking beyond the iron gate was like trying to wade through muddied waters.
Cardinal Weiss noticed Kieran idling near the colossal iron gate and smiled at him mockingly.
"What's the matter, young Voiceless? You have been given the fresh air you requested. Are you scared of a little bit of grass?"
Kieran blinked while staring at the ground.
'Grass? What damned grass?'
A bit sour from the teasing, Kieran scowled with a gurgling grunt and made wild gestures at the ground as if he were saying:
"Have you gone mad? What grass do you see?"
