Chapter 944. The Hunt Begins
Han Sen ascended a mountain, led by an old man. He was on his way to Thorn Shelter.
The mountainsides were steep, and unlike the woodland that circled them, they were barren. The environment there was poor, which provided little reason for creatures to visit; as such, there was a noticeable lack of them.
The old man did not go too far across the mountain, and when he decided to return, he instructed Han Sen on which way he should go.
Han Sen's purpose for making this venture to Thorn Shelter was to meet the person who had supposedly risked life and limb in warning the knight shelter and its inhabitants of an imminent attack.
After one hundred miles of travel, Han Sen was finally able to lay eyes on the black shelter which resided on the peak of that mountain.
Above the foothills of the mountain, Han Sen caught sight of creatures, running to and fro.
The human who delivered the news was said to live separate from the shelter, in a house that had been built in a nearby valley that was said to resemble the shape of a fish's mouth.
When Han Sen came to that valley, he spotted the house. It was wooden, but ill-kept and all-around ugly.
Han Sen did not approach as he frequently did—casually and without care. He instead chose to approach stealthily. There didn't seem to be anyone around, so he waited for the onset of night. As the sun was being reclaimed by the horizon once more, a man returned to the house.
