"Everyone ready?" I asked as I looked at Blaze and others getting ready, with the backpacks that they had bought from the merchant, Lloyd.
Each of them carried a bunch of scrolls, while our main camping gear was with Trisha, our porter. Not including our main weapons, she also carried at least three sets of additional weapons of the same type.
I also wanted to take Lierra with me, but because of her low level and the fact that once an NPC dies, they die for real, in the game, I decided to go against that. It was obvious that she was an important NPC in the game whose main role was yet to be utilised in-game. Perhaps not now, but in the future, she could be someone really important.
For now, all I can hope is that she grows up to be a stronger NPC. Only then could I ask for her help in times of need.
"Let's go, then," I said before I began walking, taking the lead in the direction of the temple, which was deeper into the Whispering Woods Forest.
