Han Sen waited at a camp near the shelter for two days, before the expedition was set to begin and they could leave for that enigmatic construct.
He was able to see the shelter faintly, from the distance the camp had been established. The entire time they were there, an eerie fog draped the serrated walls and ramparts, pooling over to drown the grounds they stood upon.
"Little Brother, when you are in the shelter, I advise you to stick close," Mister Li said, approaching Han Sen. There was a surprising concern tinting his unusually gruff voice.
Han Sen replied, "Yes, will do. We need to look out for each other in there; our numbers have diminished more than enough."
The demi-god Xu Yanmeng chimed in, saying, "Stick close so we can protect you, and you don't get in the way. That's what he means to say. You'll be a hindrance if you do anything more."
