Standing a short distance behind them was a figure dressed in a dark cloak that concealed almost every part of her body. The thick garment hung loosely around her, making it difficult to discern her actual appearance.

Each step seemed to require a considerable amount of effort, and although she tried to conceal it, neither of them could overlook the obvious signs of discomfort.
