I am feeling absolutely numb or extremely tense. But I know is that my senses aren’t working properly. I am writing my journal in a cavern. It’s so dark in here, I can smell dried blood all around.

We slept early and started today at five o’clock in the morning, long before we could see the diffused sunlight. Those scrawny rays tell us when the sun is up. We moved due North, our heading maintained towards Cold Fields. The terrain was already known and mapped, I could drive much faster. We didn’t witness any developments this time either. Smooth paths helped us reach the site of the crater in about four and a half hours. It was still oozing yellow smoke, but with lower intensity yet poisoning the area…
