It had been almost two weeks since Jerome had taken her to Fox Island. Guin had become accustomed to living in the Beast World by hunting small animals and avoiding areas controlled by beasts stronger than her. She also relied on her instincts to sense whether the place she was going to was dangerous.
When night came, Guin would look for a remote place rarely visited by beasts and hide there. Only when the sun rose would she resume her journey, following the map given by Jerome.
Today, she entered a wasteland filled with black miasma. As a sky fox, black miasma was poisonous to her body. However, it was the quickest way to reach her hometown. If she detoured to avoid the miasma, not only would she have to face the evil creatures hiding in unknown lairs, but it would also take much more time.
