Past the barrier

In the end, I received no answer to my question. All that my guide said was a single sentence. 

"It's not yet the time."

Ever since that time, we continued to push further and further through the path. 

To my right, there was a massive forest, the scale of which was something that no forest on earth could compare. Yet, contrary to what I saw when we walked through the area barrier's borderlands, there were plains to the left. 

An actual, open plain filled with grass, animals, and sun. A lovely sight. One that made me want to take a break and just gaze into the sky. 

Sadly, my guide didn't stop even for a second. And while he made it clear that he didn't care if I would follow him or not, the haste behind his movements, the relentless desire to push even further, made me think that taking a break right now might not be the smartest thing to do.
