He cautiously stepped out of the stone gate, breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing the Big Tree Guard still patrolling, and then looked towards the Aire Church.
"They went that way, didn't they..."
So Tepi turned his gaze eastward, standing at the cliff's edge, he could see a vast lake to the east.
"I'll go take a look at the lake then."
Why not follow Uffie and the others' path? Obviously, it's because running into them would be awkward.
He tiptoed around the Big Tree Guard, daring not to make a single sound, literally playing it stealthily.
The area he was currently in was a raised highland, the lake was below the highland, and to get there, unless one found a route where the terrain gradually leveled, one would have to slowly climb down from the cliff.
Naturally, Tepi chose to climb down, took quite some effort to descend to the ground.
