Death is a delightful hiding place for weary men.
However, Zane and his team don't come under the category of weary so death wasn't a place for them to hide in.
If they could, they wouldn't like to hide at all. But the situation demanded them to lay low and the best solution for that was Salmon.
The name of the creature that had come out of the sea.
Corny's pet.
Salmon was about to be their ride and Corny explained to them why it was necessary instead of using any boats or ships.
He laid out all the problems in front of them and everyone let Zane carry all the problems Corny laid.
They didn't want to go inside Salmon as they weren't sure what they would find inside its stomach. Acid? Stench?
But if not Salmon, then they would have to choose Cleaver mountains to reach High Lumen Bastion which was another ardent task. They can't let go of their plan of entering the city. One way or the other, they had to go.
Due to the complexity of the decision, everyone left it to Zane.
