Little Fox, where did she go?

Yin Tingxue escaped from the town.
The town's glow gradually faded away, elongating her shadow, and the longer it stretched, the more blurred it became, until soon it was like a broken thread slipping into the shade.
The town's glow finally turned into a blurred golden point at the edge of her vision, like the last glimpse of daylight before falling into an abyss.
She trudged along a route from distant memories, in a dead silence.
Memories were like ink seeping into water, with many details already blurred, but the general direction and several key markers were vividly etched into her bones.
She dared not pause for a moment, fearing that if she stopped, she'd be assimilated by this all-consuming World of Ignorance, or... noticed by that lurking terror.
