The journey to the forward camp took 2 days, and nothing special happened during their travels. The camp is located at the base of a forested hilly area. The scouts guided Risha and Ziya to the area where the monster was last spotted.The forest was just as the report said, no traces of animals or even the sounds of birds. After an hour long trek, they reached their destination, a rocky clearing near the top of the second hill from the camp. Immediately Risha and Ziyan noticed something off about the location, there seemed to be a wide path totally devoid of all plant life smaller than a tree, as if someone was clearing the undergrowth for road building.
