Going to the Tarin Mountains doesn't seem like a good idea to me. If we're to kill two birds with one stone, then we have to be there when the Exorcism is happening. In that case, we can stop the process and also retrieve the artifact.
I quickly proposed this idea to the group, and they considered it. However, we don't know when the Exorcism proceedings will begin.
"What if we send spies to observe the mountains from a distance?" Elizabeth suggested.
"Spies to spy on Deanite wolves? Hmmm... That sounds interesting," said Laura. From her response, I think she agreed with that option.
But Ethan was still bent on leading an army into those mountains. He became even more interested in this journey after hearing about the artifact's involvement in the exorcism.
After deciding to send spies instead of an army, Ethan and I were the last people left in his chambers.
