Sitting on top of the barn, Aether watched the fields, watching for anything to happen. Night had come, and he had a feeling something might happen, and this feeling wasn't driven just by his gut. The description of the book had said with its own words that there had been something that made their harvest fail.
And since tomorrow was harvest day, something was bound to happen tomorrow; any Reader could be able to figure it out. Using Eden, he was able to see just fine, but for an hour or so, nothing had happened. Which was pretty discouraging.
A part of him was annoyed, since he had to climb the barn to get the best view, and for nothing. True, it hadn't been that hard; he just threw Voidpiercer and used it alongside some Abyssal Matter; it wasn't such a big deal. But it was still effort for nothing.
