The City Of The Not So Dead

(Lian Li POV)

Moving through the streets of the city, we were greeted by the same sight of people who were standing around listlessly.

As we were told, this was supposed to be a trading city and there would normally be a lot of people milling about the streets to do their business. These people were now simply standing still and staring off into space, showing no reaction to us when we were moving amongst them.

It was quite surreal to be honest, like inside a dream. The fact that we could still feel the presence of these people was also making it feel a little unsettling.

Tatiana frowned, "How did this happen and yet no news reached us?"

"Didn't you say you had some people stationed here?" I asked.
