How long more to Darkness Port?
Wrapping herself in a large animal pelt in mixed colors, Higan gazed further away through the black scarf that she wrapped around her head.
How long had it been since she left Starstay City? Seven days? Eight days? Higan was not sensitive towards numbers as her mind never remembered all the trivial details. All she knew was that she was traveling the correct direction and heading back to Darkness Port.
Although she was not good at communicating with others, no matter how difficult it was, she would never lose her direction towards Darkness Port. Therefore, in the past few days, Higan believed she had learned something different: to speak to a complete stranger.
As though to conserve material, the cart only had a crude-looking carriage made out of a thin layer of animal pelt, so it could not shelter her from the harsh winter wind.
