"So you can't leave a specific area? That's just as I suspected. Although your method of Time Travel wasn't through the Time Key, it shares similarities with Time Key adventures."
Shade had the most experience in this regard, so he asked again:
"Then, Miss Danist, did you try to leave clues for us in this era? For example, finding people and instructing their descendants to go somewhere on a certain date; or burying notes or notebooks somewhere inconspicuous."
Miss Danist had naturally considered that as well:
"I did think of it, and I did exactly that. I didn't know on which day after my disappearance you or anyone else would arrive here, so I instructed the townspeople to come to this inn and look for someone one week after the date I vanished."
The corners of her lips curved slightly into a smile as her rose-red eyes looked at Shade:
"But clearly, you arrived even sooner than I expected."
"Then did you bury anything? Although we can now confirm that you really traveled into the past, I think we still need to dig up what you buried to prove it completely. After all, there are still other possibilities, aren't there?"
"I did. To keep it from being dug up when the town expanded or was renovated, I buried it in the woodland. No, Shade, sit down. You don't need to go. I dug it out last night."

"This is an alchemical ring I made myself. It can't be forged. If you're still worried, you can ask the descendants of the townspeople I left information with back then. Of course, that's assuming they really followed my instructions and are still willing to carry out those actions."
Shade shook his head:
