I spent the next 3 days walking through the forest, killing and eating everything I came across. During this time, I tried to communicate with the little girl, but she never says anything unless she uses magic.
At least she seems to be smart and understands perfectly what I'm saying, so I don't think her not speaking is a big problem.
I decided to keep the little girl hidden inside my shadow because I decided not to use the shadows to fight during my time in the forest. I need to live without help, and the little girl is a very good help because of her strength, and that takes away some of the meaning of the training.
My route is a straight line to the strongest creature I can feel in the area around me. There are several very strong creatures, but I'm going to the closest one. I'm looking for the strongest monster I can find so I can devour it.
