After a brief pause for a day's bivouac, our little band of legends resumes their journey, determined to follow the watercourse to its source. They must head to the foot of the mountain that our legendary friends can see in the distance. The closer they get, the more gigantic the mountain seems. But they have no choice: they must begin the ascent.

Our legendary hero goes ahead to set up the stakes and ropes, thus facilitating the journey for those who wish to follow. Some members of the group choose to stay at the foot of the mountain to maintain the camp and continue their hunter-gatherer lifestyle. They will send up part of the water and provisions they collect. Placing the ropes along the mountain will not only secure the climb but also help transport supplies.

After a day's climb, our legend arrives in a small valley where they believe they are hallucinating. In front of them, a long path unfolds, seemingly guarded by a mysterious entity. The mountain climb will resume with full vigor after this trek through the valley. But for now, a well-deserved rest is in order before continuing the adventure.

And now, imagine our legend, exhausted, lying on their back, staring at the stars. "Well, if I'd known you could hallucinate in the mountains, I would have brought sunglasses!" they joke. The others burst out laughing, and one of them adds, "With our luck, the mountain is probably a sleeping giant. Let's hope he doesn't need an alarm clock to wake up!"

They settle in for the night, sharing stories and laughter, knowing that tomorrow's ascent will be anything but a walk in the park. "What if we run into a dragon?" asks a young dreamer. "Well," our legendary hero replies, "I hope he likes roasts because I'm well done!"

It's in this spirit of adventure and camaraderie that they fall asleep, ready to face the challenges ahead, with a smile and a joke always at hand.

Looking at the landscape through binoculars, our legend sees in the distance a sort of ancient village. Is it abandoned, or does an unknown people live here? The legend thinks that they can't be the first to seek the source of the water that flows through their world.

But what intrigues him in the distance is, of course, that gigantic angel. Is it a statue or a real guardian? he wondered to himself. Behind it, there seemed to be a huge wall with inscriptions carved into it.

But for now, reaching the city he sees below will be the first objective. Are there any clues? Any living people?

After his journey, our legend will have many "SECRETS" to reveal.

But for now, the legend pondered another question:

Should he increase the price of his "SECRETS" given the dangers of his journey?

Some of his "SECRETS" would go from 0.06 to 0.07 per unit. It's not much, but if it can fund his research, it might be worth it.

With time, he would also raise the prices of the others. However, the documents were at home. One of his companions volunteered to retrieve the necessary papers to increase the prices of the rest. This should take a few days, allowing enough time for the round trip.

398.65596625+234.53469328 = 633.19066

The legend also requested a delegation of 200 HP from @ecency to help fund the research for his quest .
