Castiel had begun his journey toward the northern volcano, the closest to the village's location. His travel was swift, thanks to his Elevate Skill and Velocity Manipulation.
He reached the northern volcano in just three hours.
Carefully, he descended onto the rugged, massive volcano, surrounded by towering trees and large black rocks. The air was thick with sulfur and heavy ash emitted from the volcano's mouth, signaling its active status, which made his breathing labored.
[Master, I sense danger from the volcano's mouth; you must be cautious.]
Einstein's long-silent voice echoed in his mind, offering a timely reminder.
"Thanks, buddy."
Alerted by Einstein's warning, Castiel became more vigilant, ready for anything that might occur. He slowly climbed toward the volcano's large crater, finding it more difficult to breathe as he drew nearer, due to the denser ash and sulfur.
