Melva was beyond surprised to find out that Ichorhold had been this close and easily accessible the whole time. It was merely at the border of Nightwind, the region she had been living in for almost a month now. And she had only just found out that she merely needed to go to the border to find the secret magical entrance of Ichorhold, her hometown.
If she had known that Ichorhold was this near, she would have visited there much sooner. Whenever she felt down and stressed, the familiar town would give her the comfort she needed. However, she had not been this close with Vance before. There was no guarantee that he would tell her how to get to Ichorhold without asking for something in return. Even now, there was still no guarantee whether he would ask her to do something for him, but she had put a little more faith in him, because she had known him for quite a while now and it would not hurt to trust him for something of such little importance.
