After finding a place with dense undergrowth, Lu Li decides to hide the little boat inside it and walked onto the bank of the lake with the party.
He didn't go to Stonewatch Fortress right away because of his uncertainty about the real situation of the fortress. Everyone first looked for Brubaker, the scout who Mayor Solomon had mentioned, then decide what to do next.
After searching for a while, Lu Li found a tree branch from a large tree that had been shaved by a blade. A symbol of a plum flower could be roughly made out, just like what Mayor Solomon had mentioned.
When they followed the direction of the symbol, Lu Li and others quickly found the second one.
It seemed like this scout was quite cautious after all. Every direction that was being pointed in was different every time; only old soldiers like Keeshan could understand this. Furthermore, there were no traces on the ground.
