A sudden downpour swept through, but Evelyn Ford and Ronan Kendrick were completely unaware. They were busy in the fields, where Evelyn planned to pick some red fruit to send to the Undercity. This season's wheat yield was incredibly high; you could smell the rich aroma of wheat just by standing there.
By the time they finished harvesting all the wheat, more than two months had passed. Ronan Kendrick needed to deliver food and water to the survivors in the underground tunnels. Some people had surely died during this period, and their bodies would have to be collected and buried.
They also needed to deliver some water to the Undercity, along with the red fruit Evelyn had picked.
"I'll go with you. I have no idea what it's like outside, and I want to see if the trees that were eaten by the flying insects have survived."
Ronan Kendrick couldn't dissuade Evelyn, so they both put on protective suits and left the pocket dimension.
