"Not too close, something's not right."
The Witch said to Shard. In fact, the Unicorn was also stopping them, standing in front of them to prevent them from moving forward after they got close.
The nearby area didn't seem to have anything special, and the color of the snow and the sound of the wind were normal. But both Shard and Miss Benanis's Sixth Sense detected something amiss, so Shard bent down to form a snowball and threw it at the woodland ahead, only to find nothing happened.
"It's too quiet."
The Witch softly said to Shard:
"Even in deep winter, the Earth has sounds, but I hear none, as if the land ahead is already dead."
She frowned slightly:
"Don't move here, I'm stronger, I'll go check it out."
"No, no, this isn't the time to see who is stronger."
Shard hastily stopped her, then realized the small beast standing in front of them didn't avoid him as he came closer. Apparently, the Unicorn also got his gender wrong:
"What's ahead?" (Ancient Elvish Language)
