"I don't know, maybe the flood submerged their habitat, forcing them to move to higher ground."
The group watched the Grey Treants leave; it was a rare sight.
Only Miss Beiji squatted by the campfire's embers, placing breakfast pancakes on still-hot stones, softening them with her hands, and then wrapping them up.
She distributed these pancakes to everyone, and Fang Hong was a bit surprised by how they came about. Upon asking, he learned that this girl prepared them herself in Patchiwa.
If Fang Hong didn't plan on taking her to Golande, she intended to rely on these provisions to cross the Old World's Ladder.
Although it sounded a bit fantastical, Fang Hong couldn't help but admire the girl's determination.
By the way, the Papalarian blushed like an apple when he received the pancake.
He stammered, saying to Miss Beiji: "Miss Beiji, if you're going to Golande, I'll go with you..."
"Because, because I promised your father to take good care of you."
