At night, Tilan sat in her own little tent, with an oil lamp placed on a higher wooden box, while Tilan herself sat on a wooden chair by its side.
The black skirt was rolled up, folded to the knees, revealing slightly small and fair knees and feet soaked in warm water.
Due to limited conditions, naturally, she couldn't take a shower, nor was there a large enough bath and water to soak and clean herself. Instead, she wiped herself with a water basin, and finally, the girl soaked her feet in the remaining warm water, taking advantage of the lamp light to flip through the map album she bought at the market today.
The entire album is just about 20 pages, roughly printed with maps of the river's upper and lower reaches, also marking the approximate positions of various settlements. Looking at the imprint number at the end of the album, it seems to be the first edition printed three years ago.
