Chapter 117: The lake

During the following days, we continued traversing zone 4. This area was notably quieter than the others. Titans typically remained within their respective zones, seldom venturing beyond their lairs. Fortunately, this trend worked in our favor, as it meant we could advance with relative safety, as long as we maintained a safe distance from these imposing creatures.

We found a steady rhythm in our journey, taking advantage of the relative tranquility of the area to progress unhindered. As we moved forward, we marveled at the natural beauty surrounding us, with the forest shrouded in an eerie aura, the feeling that the woods were watching us intently still present. The whisper of leaves and the chilly air brushing against our faces, though the chirping of some birds could be heard, I have not seen any so far.
