Brand found the snake lizard beast while Antitina and Tiya were hiding in a nearby bush, admiring the beautiful and mysterious creature—they didn't dare get too close and were watching from hundreds of meters away.
The noble lady was actually out looking for the little girl who was running around gathering materials for Tama, but when she encountered the Wild Elf girl along with the Lizardman from the Flame Claw Clan, they both discovered the quiet pond in the forest.
Antitina happened to recognize the scale. She had read about various monsters in books, some of which specifically described the large group of snake lizard beasts in great detail.
On one hand, she sent Lord Lopar of Flame Claw back to report this to Brand; on the other hand, she led the others forward and soon followed the tracks left by the gigantic creature in the forest to find it.
