As Murphy left the Creation Place with a peculiar fatigue and returned to Shadow Valley, a report regarding the Blackflame Mountain Pass was finally delivered to the Transia embassy on the Ligurian Peninsula.
Given the communication efficiency of this world, such an important report should not have been delayed for so long.
