Why
In the blink of an eye, the three witches materialized in a thick forest, in the mountainous area, far away from where there were humans. This was not a place where humans would traverse. In fact, people went out of their way to stay away from this place and left it well enough alone. Thus, Lilith was confident that they would be safe from detection.
However, Zeres did not even seem to notice that they were not in the city anymore. He was still huddled over in the same position as earlier, never letting go of Alicia. It mattered not to him where they were. All that mattered was in his arms, but the object of his focus was now unmoving and not breathing any longer.
Lilith could only stand there, looking at them heartbrokenly as she tried to steel herself. To at least stay strong on the surface. Because she knew that if Alicia could still talk, she would definitely tell her not to cry.
After a long while, the vampires arrived one after the other.
