So, they set off for Yaren that very night.
Nina couldn't sleep. As the night went on, the temperature dropped significantly, and everyone around her gradually fell asleep. The fire couldn't stay lit all night, so she reluctantly crawled into the tent. Scarlett was also awake, so despite Nina's efforts to move quietly, she noticed the slight noise.

Scarlett had been expending more energy than Nina and yet hadn't slept. It must have been because she, too, had a lot on her mind.
"I can't sleep knowing you're still awake. Besides, even if you do sleep, I'll be on guard. I understand how you feel, but we're here now, and you must conserve your energy," Scarlett said. "I know," Nina responded, her thoughts heavy.
She understood the importance of conserving energy, but her mind was occupied with thoughts of Nash, Scott, and even her baby. The recent harrowing events replayed in her head. "Scarlett, do you think there's something wrong with me?" Nina asked.
She pressed her lips tightly together, feeling a strange unease in her heart.
She felt overwhelmed.
She had thought that once she arrived, she would be able to reach Yaren directly. Even if she couldn't find Nash and Scott immediately she believed that with seffort, she would locate them soon enough.
But she had underestimated the journey. They had already spent so much ton the road and still hadn't reached Yaren. Given their current situation and with just the two of them, it seemed almost impossible.
Scarlett's eyes brightened. "It's not that there's something wrong with you. But if you're exhausted, maybe we should..." "No," Nina said firmly. She had cthis far. She wouldn't give up until she reached Yaren and found Scott and Nash.

"It's probably just a passing vehicle," Scarlett reassured Nina. "Besides, we have many people around us. If anything happens, I'll protect you." Scarlett's duty was to ensure Nina's safety, even at the cost of her own life.
"I know. The sound just startled me," Nina admitted. It wasn't fear, just a natural reaction to potential danger. Being human meant experiencing fear.
"Try to rest," Scarlett urged.
After a moment of silence, Nina suddenly asked, "Scarlett, did only ask you to takeanlert did Nash care of me? When I was having the baby, did he say anything else to you?" "No," Scarlett replied, understanding that Nina was probing for
information. She had indeed only been given the task of protecting Nina. Even if she knew more, she couldn't disclose it. Nash had his reasons for keeping things from Nina.
Meanwhile, Nash was in the vehicle, traveling across the desert Ashe looked out he saw the brightest North Star and a full moon.
