The place Marlene pointed out as their destination was a cave entrance, only about half the height of a normal person, but long and narrow.
"We'll use this cave as our shelter while we hunt in this area," she said to the rest of the team.
"Wait, Marlene, are you sure there aren't any monsters inside?" someone responded.
"Relax, it's safe. I got information about this place by trading something valuable," she replied, moving toward the low cave entrance.
Something valuable? So one of the reasons Marlene went to the little town was to gather information about this place. She really had put in a lot of effort for this expedition.
Everyone fell silent, seemingly waiting for Marlene to go in first. The men exchanged knowing glances, none of them making a move.
