Chapter 55: Settling Them In
As they stepped outside, the late afternoon sun filtered through the trees, casting long shadows across the ground. The air was thick with the scent of earth and foliage, mingled with the faint hint of smoke—a reminder that the peaceful moment they had just shared inside was only a brief reprieve from the chaos outside.
Ethan, sensing the urgency of their situation, quickly conjured a carriage using his Earth Manipulation Skill. With a few practiced gestures, he crafted a vehicle sturdy enough to comfortably seat five people.
Iris's parents and Luna stared in awe at the sudden appearance of the carriage before them, their eyes wide with wonder.
"This will take us to safety," she said, helping them climb on top. "Ethan had created it so we can move quickly and avoid any danger."
