Heavy rainfall slowed down their party longer than they could have imagined. They were making their way from a small town with no name, heading toward a large city called Yokam when the rain began.
And for the past three days, it fell relentlessly.
Ning tried teaching the soldiers when he could, but with such heavy rainfall, they simply couldn't train. Forget training—preparing food was even difficult.
There was no fire to be made, so they had to sustain themselves on dried fruits and meats. Thankfully, they were more than prepared for months of travel on the road, so they had enough.
On the fourth day of their journey, the skies finally cleared, giving way to a bright, hot sun. The day felt exceptionally sunny, making it hard for many to keep their eyes open outside.
The road was muddy and wet, so they traveled slowly.
There was just a single day left before they reached Yokam, but something stopped them along the way.
