What was even more troublesome was that they could not stay here for long. In fact, the group was already in rather poor condition. This place was simply too far from Castel, and the Symbiotic Pact was constantly draining their life force.
Before long, the Banshees roughly determined the direction, climbed out of the river, and entered the forest.
Half a day later, the three Banshees returned to the river with frustrated expressions.

Nini dejectedly set the map aside. They had searched for half the day, yet had found no trace of the camp at all.
Moreover, while the Banshees could move quickly in the river, they lost that advantage in the forest. Exploring the woods took an enormous amount of time, and their efficiency was low.
