The hunt had taken a sudden turn. More than halfway across the land bridge, what she thought was the water against the earth turned out to be something much worse. The earth trembled and groaned, thrusting the world into chaos seemingly overnight. They had no choice but to get across and look for safety. Following Kat's lead, Hinata hunkered down and waited it out. The sky, however, was cast into a red glow. A sense of foreboding came over her, washing fear over her body. Of course, the first time she decides to leave home and this is what happened! Perhaps it was a sign...though when her siblings mentioned the Long Night...

While she desperately wanted to return home, she decided instead, it was perhaps best to remain with the group that steadily grew bigger. She followed them toward the West until the reached large stone spires that towered into the heavens. It was unlike anything she had ever seen before! She was wary. Her steps careful. "I've...I've never heard of these before...I've never heard of the sky turning red, either. And father hasn't said much about the Long Night...do you think this is the start of it? Has it returned?"
