บท 435: Plotting a New Course

Crysta took out the old map from the bag Wyatt was carrying and laid it out in front of the two of them while the royal continued pacing about. She made sure there was space for Lina to join them in case she felt up to it.

After taking a short look at the map, Wyatt spoke up first, "This map only spells bad news for us. Without the mountain pass, there is no way we could make this much distance in one day as we'd originally planned.

Not to mention the predators that reign supreme within the mountains. Mountain lions! They are rumoured to be quite territorial in these parts," Wyatt pitched in, sitting crosslegged beside the girl.

"Rumours?" Crysta raised a brow at him.

"I was just trying to be positive. There are definitely mountain lions here. We just have to be careful. Luckily for us, they don't travel in a pride as normal lions do, so we won't risk finding more than two of them at the same time at which they won't be working well together."
