When the young man heard his words, he nodded slightly and asked, "Agreement?"
"The old man promised to help me find you and then leave here to return to the surface. He is very familiar with the terrain here. He knows where the mine tunnels are, where they connect to the upper layers, and where it can be cleared without causing larger collapses," Martha explained calmly and slowly—although she used the Kruz Language, she seemed to naturally adopt an Elf-like intonation, "My Lord, there is an elevator not far ahead that leads to the main tunnels of the third layer. Those tunnels are interconnected and have many transport routes to the surface, which should not all be blocked."
She smiled slightly, "If it weren't for the old man, I wouldn't have found this place so quickly."
Brand guessed that she was probably referring to the elevator Kevan and his team took down. He remembered that the mine tunnel they traveled was quite large, with three wooden tracks.
