Lily slowly opened her eyes and then looked at the sun that was rising in the East.
She had been keeping vigil the entire night along with her entire family and the rest of her tribe.
One by one, the people on the ground started to stir, as they, too, looked at the sun, whose light had descended to signal the start of a new day.
As she was sitting cross-legged on the peak of the mountain, Lily was able to see her tribesmen who numbered in the thousands.
Although everyone had stayed awake the whole night, none of them felt tired, which was expected of her people.
‘I felt it, Ethan,’ Lily thought as she stared at the Northeast, where her lover was. ‘Thank you for keeping your promise.’
The young lady didn’t tell Ethan that their race had a special ability. Regardless of the distance, they could tell where their mate was.
Because Lily was a Witch, this innate ability had mutated, granting her the power to vaguely sense what her beloved was doing.
