With nothing left to see in the mural, Thirteen and the rest of the Wanderers walked the path back until they reached the entrance, where they camped.
He took out a tent and set it up a good distance away from the rest of the Wanderers.
The God of Wanderers must've intended for him to decode the murals' message, and Thirteen needed time and space to do so.
Gods couldn't intervene directly, so they tend to use this roundabout method to give hints.
Thirteen decided to meditate for a while, understanding that there wasn't only one solution to this task.
Their mission only stated that they needed to prevent Zaphiel's army from reaching Mount Olympus.
They weren't told to fight them head-on.
By that moment, most of the Avatars of the Wanderers had returned and reported to their Masters. None spotted any dangerous monsters or any nearby human settlements in the immediate vicinity.
