The trio moved at a moderate speed, not so fast and not so slow. Monitoring their surroundings keenly as they moved, they avoided as many traps as they could.

"It's possible that this is not just a ruined palace but an entire sunken city. Merfolk build entire kingdoms under the sea. In some cases, it's an entire world of water creatures, zero humans."

Scarlet collected what she found useful, most of it to humans not necessarily to grim reapers.
