928 Broken Watch

With Lilith and Bai Shilin beside him, Bai Zemin paused standing in the middle of a large clearing and carefully surveyed the world around him.

As far as the eye could see, all Bai Zemin could see was grassland. 

The land was covered by a thin layer of light green grass, there were a few elevations here and there but nothing close to being called a mountain or even a valley. 

The sky was as blue as the Earth's and the white clouds that seemed to hang in the air moved slowly in sync with the movement of the sparse number of trees there.

Bai Shilin tugged on Bai Zemin's sleeve, and when the girl finally received his attention she said in a gentle voice, "Father, Shilin feels heavy."

"Heavy?" Bai Zemin was surprised before he finally noticed what was happening.
