"Oh, master, we really can't move forward; the path is impassable for the carriage." The lich followed beside Lynch, speaking softly, "Beyond the small hill ahead is a deep trench, and there's no bridge to cross. The only road is to detour west, at least there the valley is passable."
"Understood, Heiss." Lynch used the first two letters of the lich's true name as its name, instead of its originally lengthy name. This not only made it easier to remember but also constantly reminded the lich of its own situation. The mage's Eye of Insight pierced through the hill in front, indeed revealing a chasm. He instructed Macken to turn the carriage and then resumed his work on creating the golem.
