章 89: Snow

The white Aduns didn't look at Khan. It used its beak to scratch the feathers on its wings before inspecting the environment and giving voice to short screeches.

Khan didn't know what to do in that situation. Liiza didn't give him any instruction, but something told him that the test was over.

The Aduns standing on the grey snow was the first white creature that Khan had seen during his climb. All the other eagles featured darker shades, spanning from grey, blue, or completely black. The event didn't feel like a coincidence when Khan considered his situation.

'A white eagle for the alien boy,' Khan thought while struggling to find a decent foothold on the mountain's surface. 'It sounds proper.'

Khan studied his surroundings and showed a complicated expression when he realized that he didn't know where the mountain ended. Snow had submerged the entire flat area and had made walking over it dangerous.
