As soon as the Ravenstein youth descended from the top of the hill, they all split up into their respective groups, each heading towards different directions through the forest.
Initially, since the map of the forest was displayed on the table, Atticus had wondered how each group would navigate through the forest to reach where each of the terminals was located.
But after a single question to the oracle on his artifact, he was able to find out how to transfer the map from the table towards each of the Ravenstein youths' artifacts.
As each of the groups moved through the forest while following the maps on their artifacts, they noticed that the forest was completely devoid of any magical beasts.
It was clear that the academy wanted each of the divisions to focus solely on the battle.
