The tracks were quite easy for them to follow since they were very uniform.
It didn't take long for the elven hunters to find them and to follow them.
It was so easy that they almost couldn't help feeling a bit embarrassed about not finding them sooner.
However, they all knew that it would have been impossible for them to find it sooner.
After all, not a single one of them would have thought that these scratches on the ground would be the tracks of anything. It was only when they saw the uniform way that these things led somewhere that they believed that these were indeed tracks.
So even if they felt a bit embarrassed, that embarrassment quickly disappeared.
As for feeling inferior to the human who had told them about this, that would never happen.
