"We are almost a mile out. We just need to reach the trees over there." Bret informed Blake as the two ran through the forest. They were currently scouting spots for the outposts and were heading to the first location.
"Good, I haven't detected anything strange as of yet, either. Just some monsters but nothing worth mentioning." Blake had been the one to keep track of their surroundings while Bret was keeping track of distance. One mile was not far, but with all the trees and other objects in the way, it was not easy to spot the location they were heading to. Each spot they were going to use for an outpost needed a tree tall enough for them to put a warning fire up high in the air so it could be seen from the base. It was a secondary system of alerting the base in case the lines they were putting in somehow got destroyed.
