"I remember this place being uninhabited," Clara remarked, causing Julia to stop abruptly ahead.
The weather darkened further as Julia slowly turned, her face almost merging with the looming clouds.

Clara stared at her without a word, seemingly pondering whether the situation was real.
Sensing Clara's hesitation, Julia felt a pang of impatience but dared not show it openly, afraid of alerting her.
"Believe it or not, it's your call. But if something goes wrong, don't blame us."
Julia added before briskly heading towards the cabin.
