As expected, the Fantasy Beast that likely was an Illusionary Beast Pseudo-Dragon Successor did not respond to Russell's friendly offer.

For one thing, it was getting close to nightfall, which was not a good time to travel across the snowfield.
For another, he could also take the opportunity to study the Snow Forest to see if it really was a Cold Spring Point, as well as the ecology around the Cold Spring Point.
"This Snow Forest, let's call it Greentown Snow Forest," Russell named the Snow Forest, because unlike most, it was lush and verdant inside, "As for this Cold Spring, let's name it Greentown Garden Cold Spring Point."
