It took Jedrek's entourage two weeks to get to the eastern region. On normal days, the entourage would reach this place within a week or less, but since Lilac was with them and Jedrek was still concerned about her condition, they had to rest from time to time, adding to the fact that the weather was not really good.
Rain continued to lash out from the dark sky, and though it was supposed to be day, the sky above was gloomier than night time.
Large droplets of rain that fell on the carriage made Lilac frown, it felt like she was being thrown at, with pebbles.
Jedrek, who was sitting beside her draped a blanket around her shoulders and pulled her closer making her lean against his chest, while he rested his chin on the top of her head.
"Do you think they are still alive?" Lilac asked softly. She stared blankly at the red curtain that covered the window of the carriage.
