Barren Land And Steep Climb

Finding the jackal's remains left Asher with a few questions though as he realized things' didn't seem normal.

Firstly, there were no tracks of a jackal walking there. Asher even observed the area within the hundred meters and saw no paw prints.

'This is strange, the Jackals usually stay in a pack so there should have been some tracks at least.' Asher thought to himself.

Even if a single Jackal might have wandered off somehow, there should have been tracks left. 

"It's almost as if… It fell from the sky." Asher muttered before realization stuck. "No animals and no tracks… OF COURSE! THE DEMONS!" he exclaimed.

He looked at the Sourcefather in the sky and then got an idea of the directions before going through his memories. 

'At the end, there were swarms of winged demons coming from this side too…' Asher recalled. "They slaughtered everything in its path… Even the animals." He said in understanding.
