-- Yeah, and guess what, all the locals show up! Well, it's a nice place you've got here. Except, maybe, for the whirlpool, but we don't know about that yet. So, which way is the Cyclops? We're in a hurry, so let's go.

- I understand. Well, then I'll try to contact him and discuss this issue with him. What about the payment, by the way?

Another route led higher into the mountains, to the west.

- It might sound good, but I can't compete with the cheap sugar from Nestiar, you see? I'll just go bankrupt!

Okay. Same approach, using stealth. There are some ruins nearby. We won't go there.

"Does your wife need any help clearing out the mines?"
- We'll take care of everything.

After receiving the keys and the map, I return to the tavern to look for the sorcerer.

"@$% he's huge! Turns out, it's not a Cyclops, but a cyclop! They could have just said that right away, I wouldn't have gotten involved in this..."
Henry hesitated for a moment, but then sighed and approached the cyclop.
-- Hey kid, are you lost?

- Aaaah! Don't hit me! - the cyclops covers his face with his hands.

Lin wonders if she will have time to visit the springs and return before evening. Otherwise, it won't be good – first, she'll make an announcement and then disappoint people.

– Quiet, quiet, we're good, – Henry was at least sure of that about himself. – We won't hurt you. We'll find your mother, just don't cry. Where do you live, in the mountains? Don't cry, do you hear?

The Cyclops is still scared.
- Will you find Mom? 😢 Mom is in the mountains. Mom! Mom! 😭

Nikta and Zeikin reach the cave. Near it, they sense a strong smell of the plant they are looking for, and another smell that resembles the scent of birds.

Henry approaches very cautiously.
-- He said that if we find her, we will. In the mountains, I understand. Do you have anything of your mother's? We'll find her by scent. A toy, a rattle, maybe a piece of clothing? Are you hungry?

The huntress listens and sniffs. How many of these birds are there, how big and dangerous are they? Does the smell come from the cave, or did they just pass by? Wait for me. I'll drop off the herbs, level up, and help clear the mines. I have a stat boost in dungeons.

So, there's no grass in the cave?
