As the group approached, both Archibald and Leopold grew anxious, fearing they might be discovered.
They were just about to look for an opportunity to escape when unexpectedly, the group stopped.
"Let's just call it quits; there's nothing worth seeing ahead. Let's not waste more time here."
"You're right, with all those disgusting things up on the mountain, if they are still alive, they're probably not faring well anyway."
