A teleporting spell flashed, and human figures appeared.
Talia and Damon were on the top of a bare hill that provided a good view of their surroundings.
The first thing they noticed was the lack of trees.
Low bushes speckled the pale red ground where dust swirled with the dry wind. Hills of irregularly shaped rocks could be seen here and there, some as tall as two-story buildings.
The greenery of bushes contrasted with the red color of ground and rocks, and it all looked odd against the blue sky.
Other than the rustling of leaves among bushes caused by the breeze, there were no other sounds.
"Are you sure we are in the right place?", Damon asked Yasmin.
"Of course, we are sure", Serena responded with an edge in her tone. It was her and Feya who performed the spell to teleport because Evanora insisted that Yasmin should preserve her strength because of the pregnancy.
