The quest didn't give him any map or locator to find the ancient city ruins, but Ryan hoped he wouldn't need one.
A short way off into the woods, there was a very small clearing where someone had left a huge pile of firewood in a heap.
"Maybe it's kindling for a campfire," he said out loud while looking at his surroundings for anyone watching.
He saw an axe laying on top of the firewood. He could smell the freshly cut wood.
"Who are you?" a voice asked behind Ryan.
Spinning around, Ryan saw two women dressed in leather standing in front of him, one of which held a spear in her hands. They both looked relatively human, except for the cat ears sticking from either side of their heads.
One seemed to be about as old as Ryan, with dark brown hair that came down past her shoulders, and wore thin red robes with long sleeves.
