Nilou and Rhizone didn’t fully grasp the subject matter of the adults‘ conversation. Nevertheless, while the adults discussed, the two children remained at the sidelines, attentively listening without interrupting. curbing their enthusiasm in deference to the ongoing discussion.

It was only when Josiah initiated a query, posing the question. “Is this the only road to drive through?” that Nilou succinctly offered her insight.

“This is the best route, she explained. “Previously, some visitors attempted to take another route, but unfortunately, they found themselves stuck in the mud. The villagers from nearby had to assist them in pulling their cars out of the mud.”

Josiah, contemplating this, could not help but visualize himself navigating this route, the vehicle becoming ensnared.

More alarming than the mere inconvenience of being stuck was the peril of sinking swiftly and profoundly into the mire. In such dire situations, abandoning the vehicle and swimming to safety might be the only recourse, a perilous endeavor particularly for tourists unacquainted with these treacherous road conditions.

After a brief period of introspection, Josiah accessed the vehicle’s navigation system to inquire, “Is this route easy to locate?”

The navigation screen was a convoluted mess, displaying the lake’s location but surrounded by a labyrinth of complex paths, some of which disconnected from the village entirely. Even for someone as analytical as he, deciphering the map was a considerable challenge.

Nilou reflected on this, noting. “Locals here find it easy to navigate, but outsiders might struggle without guidance. Without a local guide, I doubt outsiders would even know there’s a lake here, let alone find their way to it.”

Lysander, observing Nilou’s mature demeanor, noted how appropriately she spoke despite her youth. neither overstating the difficulty of the route nor overlooking to credit their guidance.

She then gestured toward the car door, inviting the children, “If your home is near that little boat, how shall we ger here?”

With a clever grin, Nilou clasped her younger brother’s hand and feapt from the vehicle, “Follow me, there’s a bridge nearby.”

Lysander and Josiah, prompted by her assurance, trailed behind, leaving their car somewhat carelessly parked beside the road. Given the absence of other vehicles, proper parking seemed unnecessary and posed no obstruction.

After spending enough time in such a leisurely and comfortable village, even the most composed individuals would find themselves drawn to the call of freedom.
