— Who knows? Many things remain a mystery in the Dark Lands.

They should at least ask themselves who they are...

- And that's true, this place can hardly be called friendly. On the way, we saw a strange tower that we didn't even want to approach. It's a creepy structure," Christian shared, deciding to break up the interesting questions with something unrelated. "Are you by any chance from Valderan, or are you also heading somewhere? If you're locals, maybe you know where we can find some Arcadian fruits or something else we should be wary of, besides the river? Our supplies are running low, and we really don't want to perish in this dangerous place.

— If you don't want to perish, you should turn north; then there will be nothing to fear if you manage to escape the Dark Lands. And the Tree of Arcadia does not grow here.

- Not growing? That's a shame. And there seems to be a fairy forest and some caves, or maybe mines, somewhere else. Do you know anything about them? - the Nosferatu continues, examining the people for any distinguishing marks, emblems, and so on.

The dwarf couldn't grasp the point or meaning of this strange, evasive conversation from both sides. In his opinion, it was much simpler to ask the questions directly and then decide how to proceed based on the situation. But since his companions wanted to do it differently, he had no choice but to stand there with a stony face and listen in silence.

these are the questions that interest us, so we know where to go later

Questions that interest me, to make it easier to complete my task*

I think you're testing their patience.

— I can't offer any advice regarding fairies or mines, but the mountains are located to the east of here.

Everyone except the leader was wearing simple clothes or unremarkable light armor. Christian didn't notice any distinguishing features.

If a player wants, they can directly ask who they are and what they are doing here... I can't repeat myself anymore.

— I can't offer any advice about fairies or mines, but the mountains are located to the east of here.

Interesting fellows. They know about the river from which no one returns, but they don't know about the mine with gemstones.

Okay, I'll ask him now.
