Apollo didn't know what was happening deep within the Thousand Mountain forests, but he and Reid were running to find a hiding place. The forest had become far more dangerous than usual.
Even as they ran, they encountered some troubles, but Apollo quickly took care of them, knowing they weren't as formidable as the beast soldier wolf.
"Here, I remember there's a cave where we can hide for the night and leave early tomorrow morning." Reid quickly led him to a small cave concealed in the forest.
The cave was nestled among large bushes and trees, offering ample space for more than two people to hide comfortably.
They quickly went in to hide. Reid used various plants and slightly poisonous herbs, spreading them outside the cave so the beast wouldn't approach the area.
"So, what do you think made powerful beasts leave their territory?" Apollo asked, unable to contain his curiosity, as they rested. This was Reid's area of expertise, after all.
