The lizardmen were not dumb but with a deity next door, these were more into religion and superstition than many other creatures. Not to mention that Var Agus' group was quite literally made of the ones still willing to support their hydra god.

That was only a facade though, the place was simply too dangerous and equally mysterious. While Var had never personally investigated the matter, one didn't have to make mistakes themselves to learn from them.
"Oh mysterious one…?" Var reiterated in questioning. One could never be too careful!
