And something did indeed happen. Out of nowhere, a flash of light appeared in the distance. It illuminated the surroundings, quickly soothing that feeling of despair everyone was having.
"The exit!"
"Finally!"
"Let's go!"
Rifindio, Royer, and Elsie obviously wanted to do the same thing. However, they were still slightly under control of their emotions, so they noticed Rean, Roan, Kentucky, and Celis didn't move.
The only ones who advanced in the light's direction were Lindiho, Werkel, Cafantrie, and Grititi.
"A-Aren't we going?" Royer asked, doing his best to hold back.
Roan shook his head, though. "Think about it a little, and you also wouldn't want to go after that light."
"What do you mean?" Rifindio asked this time.
Rean explained. "Everyone finally snapped out or is close to it. They couldn't deal with this situation anymore. And yet, just as they were at the peak of their misery, that 'exit' over there appeared. Say, don't you find it way too convenient?"
