"Dragon Cypress, where are we going?"
"I don't know."
"You don't know?"
"I don't know."
"Are we going to the Purple Tung Insect Nation to tell the Huagi Divine Tree the news?"
"What news?"
"The Fire Wheel Island United Kingdom, of course!"
"No need. It's not like we can conquer it and take its place."
"They're hunting us down!"
"If we get close and spy on any Ant Clan or Bee Clan Kingdom, we'll be hunted. Besides, telling the Huagi Divine Tree won't help; all it will do is warn us to be careful."
"Then..."
Ink Orchid tilted its head, wide-eyed in thought, circling back to the original question: "So where are we going now?"
Dragon Cypress: "…I don't know."
The original plan had been to spend the entire winter exploring across the Molan Continent, to find and memorize the locations of every unclaimed wasteland island, and then bring Ink Orchid over for a full search.
The sudden turn of events threw the plan into chaos.
