Once Alex was done purchasing the few ingredients he wanted, he left the store to go roam the city. He made sure to leave the store while noticing what the location was like so that he could easily return here should he need to.
He saw many carriages roaming through the middle of the city, while he himself walked on the side path.
The city was bustling still, but no doubt much less than how it would be during the day. Everyone walked around, focused on their own business. Alex watched how mundane the daily life felt everywhere.
No matter where he went, no matter how strong the cultivators were, life eventually became mundane for everyone.
"It's quite cold," Whisker noted.
Alex felt around. "Is it winter perhaps?" he thought. But then he looked above at the massive gap in the sky. It could very well be that as well. He couldn't confidently tell if it was winter or the Yin of the Ever-Dark realm was affecting this world like it was affecting its gravity.
