44. Don't say I didn't warn you
"Is there some problem, Master?" King Adrian asked cautiously.
Ether nodded before taking a few steps towards one of the larger trees. She took out a dagger which was attached to her armour.
The surface of the trees were rough with small prickling thorns all over. She scraped a little part of the bark before returning to her troop.
"These may look small in size but you can not ignore them. These are highly poisonous and damage your internal organs once your skin is scratched by any of these. So everyone be careful." Ether explained before throwing the thorny part away.
She had been reading all those books given to her by Chiron, hence she had more knowledge about those plants and trees than anyone else in the troop.
Soon they resumed their journey, though careful with their steps, especially after Ether's warning.
