There was a slight pause from Laerad's side. It was as if he was thinking carefully about whether he would agree and give to me what I needed from him. On another note, maybe he was already checking things about this peculiar mountain.
His silence couldn't help but make me a bit nervous since I also don't want him to get in trouble in case what I am asking of him is forbidden or can hurt him. It is just that I really don't have any other means to get information quickly other than from the deity that guarded this planet from the start so I waited patiently for him to speak again.
After several minutes of silence, I heard a sigh from Laerad as he asked in a helpless tone, "You want me to check this mountain in front of you? This isn't even a mountain but a bump on the ground formed from bones with a lot of soil on top, you know."
