Making A Way Through

"What about the rest of the bones?" Ronni asked. 

"They could have been here long before the two had found this place. Maybe it served as some form of a forgotten burial ground?" Vyrena theorised. 

She also noticed that there were no valuables anywhere in the cavern. If there had been belongings left by the deceased, they were long gone. Everyone seemed optimistic about the way the tunnels are. 

"I have a question," Maribelle asked as she raised her hand to get the rest of their attention. 

When she had it, she asked, "Which direction should we dig in?"

"Also, how far do we need to dig?" Boss added. 

The rest of them looked at one another. Those were really good questions. If only they had some way of knowing. 

"The easiest way, in terms of direction, is to pick one and start digging. If we come up upon the roots of the tree in the centre of the Jungle, we would know we dug in the wrong direction," Vyrena explained.
