As he followed the direction of the horde, Drai realized that the creatures he passed by didn't seem to notice his presence. In fact, all of them were totally focused on their destination, so much that a predator and its prey could march side by side indifferently.
Drai's pace wasn't too fast, as he didn't want to overtake the massive horde at the front. It took him about an hour to finally arrive at a towering cliff with a wide gorge in its center.
Due to the bottleneck, the horde was forced to halt their advance. Slowly but steadily, their numbers dwindled as the creatures entered the gorge in smaller groups. Interestingly, even creatures that could fly, like insects and birds, chose to walk on the ground like the others.
Drai watched from a distance, perched on a tree.
