After crossing the stone bridge, there was a small grove ahead, with a small hill beside it.
A stone path extended into the grove, winding and turning, going around to the back of the hill.
Herag followed behind Acorn, walking along the stone path, not daring to speak loudly.
After rounding the hill, an open area appeared before them.
In the distance was a small wooden cottage, with a cultivated field outside, planted with pumpkins and other vegetables.
The large pumpkins stood on the ground, their size somewhat exaggerated.
Herag even felt that if these pumpkins weren't cut open, they might not fit into that small cottage.
Just as the two reached the front of the cottage, the door opened, and an elder with a long white beard appeared.
Andres smiled, looking at Acorn and said, "Back again, is this the child you mentioned?"
"Yes, Lord Andres," Acorn replied softly.
After carefully looking at Herag, Andres said, "Hmm, a very decent child, come in and sit."
