Yeah, that's true. But it's still worth a try, maybe I'm not even in the third stage yet. And Leon should be gone from the swamps. Although the chances are close to zero, yes.

Deciding that time was of the essence, Dalia and Dorin headed east towards the camp. Revan said that this would be faster.

Not faster, but safer.

Oh, right.

In short, the second group spent another three hours on all their tasks and is ready to move on.

Dormin was unable to decipher the text of the letter in the book. The pair headed east and then turned north, reaching their camp after 12 hours of travel. Everything was calm in the camp.

Ishana
-49 satiety

Ikhtir
-7 satiety
-1.75 kg of rice.

Returning to the camp, Dalia decided to try her luck and approached Ishanara, who looked hungry.
- Listen, you're hungry, right?

Our group is heading east. The raven flies ahead and scouts.

— It wouldn't have happened if that scorpion-headed fellow wasn't such a miser.

- I have a proposition for you. You needed to scout out the western settlement, right? Well, if you agree to exchange a task with me, I'll give you enough food for three days. Deal?

— What will I do next? — The Teiosian smiled nervously. — Whether I starve to death in three days or a week, it doesn't make much difference, and besides this piece of paper, I don't have anything that would be valuable in this stupid forest. And why did I even follow you here? I can't even fly away from here. Damn Leona...
— Comrades, welcome back. — Hearing a familiar name in the conversation, the Shunian joined in. — Is Leona not with you?

/By the way, you could have at least picked up my food and envelope, you impatient lot. Sigh./

-Where did the others go? - Dormin asked anyone remaining in the camp.

Why did I even follow you here? There's no way to fly out of here.

/ Why can't you fly out? Does the Haven punish those who retreat? That's strange. /

- You can convince other starving subjects to help you. I can provide more provisions specifically for this purpose. How does that sound?
Hearing the words of the Shunian, Dalia sighed heavily and replied:
- She won't return. And it's better if you don't encounter what she has become.
The half-elf was not entirely sure that Leona had already transformed, but she didn't want to take any chances.
