Arrival

We escaped as fast as we could from the incoming disaster. There was no hesitation in any of the group, they knew for a fact that slowing down or making any unnecessary movements besides speeding forward would mean instant death.

Their pods were fast, fast enough to out-speed the incoming scorpion, but that only applied in open terrain. The area we were in was a slightly wide valley but it had a lot of curves and turns to it.

And far above in the skies were great crows that would definitely find it enjoyable to feast on cultivators who tried to escape by going above the valley.

The crows were fast, and agile, even if they weren't as fast as the pods, if they notice any of us coming up, they'll intercept, they won't bother the scorpion in his domain but once we go to theirs, it will be even harder to flee.
