After confirming no one knew of such an old man, Lind left with the dryad to the west. In his presence and with some wards he erected on the journey, she not only reached her peak but actually broke through!
It was clear she was in far better shape than the humans or demons.
Flying was impossible for Lind at the moment but the journey was very peaceful. Lind was able to observe the massive fields and a few sparse forests. They were mortal trees for the most part, but he saw a few Soul Realm plants on the way.
Herbs were almost non-existent save the most common type in grade 1.
"How has there been no revolt or attempts to make a path back to the Sovereign Lands?" Lind could not accept anyone just rolling over and living with the current state of affairs.
The dryad, who had no name he could pronounce, nodded.
