It's another desert.

The sand is red.

The sun is, too.

Raven cannot remember how long it has been so.

He does, however, remember being hungry.

That has never been a surprise.

Ace can remember how long it's been.

Well, she can remember how long it's been since she last died - two hours, five minutes, thirty-two seconds.

She's kinda hoping she'll break three hours as she trudges across the seemingly-endless desert. It'd be a record for today.

There are no camels.

Or lizards.

Or markers in the distance.

Just sand and sun and a dry, blistering heat.

Or is that a shadow on the horizon?

While Ace appreciates the heat, she's less of a fan of the blistering. And yes, she decides, that's a shadow on the horizon. So she starts heading in that direction instead.

And tells herself that the moaning is wind in a canyon nearby.

The moaning is definitely from the canyon.

In part.

The shadow on the horizon is spreading.

And in the sky --

A black speck seems to be moving closer.

Very quickly.
