Chapter 115 Searching For A Way

• Guilt chewed at me, but there was no time to dwell on it. The others were already stirring, gathering together in the cool morning light. We huddled in a tight circle, the gravity of our situation pressing down on us as we prepared to plan our next move.

I clasped my hands behind my back, trying to keep my composure.
