Ironically enough, the waterfall that Salome's eyes seemed to have been obsessed with was the source of the noise. Well, not the waterfall itself, of course, but the thing it had just thrown over its crest and sent into a free fall to the land below.
It was distant, but the piercing, ugly sound was still easy to hear due to the nature of any ravine.
"AAArrghhh!"
It was the sound of a human screaming… screaming while falling to their inevitable death.
Salome spotted the poor woman just before her body disappeared from her view, the backdrop of the falling water almost making her look angelic.
Well, her death appeared inevitable at least. The fall was at least 50 meters, and while Salome didn't actually know what her landing zone looked like. It's not like it mattered if she died on impact or not…
'She's bound…'
