"The rubble goats are another monster we will see but can easily avoid. They are territorial but will prefer to let an enemy pass by than fight unless you stare it down. Then it will charge head fist at you and try to break you. They test the horns on boulders breaking them to rubble, hence the name, rubble goats."

This monster was much more common but a minor worry since they usually preferred not to fight. The last monster was more troublesome. It was less common but still posed a threat. 

"The bone beak vultures are a huge pain. They are known for picking up rockets to drop on prey until they are defeated and can feed on them. They fly very high and are hard to defeat. Not to mention they will follow prey night and day circling them until they are beaten." 

"Those do not sound like the nicest monster out there." Gil was worried that the bone beak vulture would fly too high for his normal arrows and require him to use a lot of mana. He also worried that they would still be too high in the sky. 

"Actually, you will probably be the best counter to them. You have wind elemental arrows that could topple them from the sky." Walker made this point causing Gil\'s face to light up.

"I am glad to hear that. I would have trouble looking up and blocking stones constantly." Su felt a relief off of her shoulders as well from this. She had not wanted to attempt to block and watch the ground while also blocking and watching the sky. 

"We might encounter a few other monsters but none that should pose a threat or are common enough to worry about. I just hope that we can traverse the rocks well." Walker was already starting to think he should have gotten extra pairs of sturdy boots for everyone. The rocks were rough and sometimes jagged along the path they were taking and could cause a decent amount of damage to their shoes. 

"Leader, you have materials to repair our shoes, correct?" Su thought she recalled Lisa forcing some sewing and repair materials for clothing and shoes before they left. 

"Yes! She did. I can try to repair any damage when we rest next. Hopefully, the skills will show up easily." Walker would need some leather working skills and the sewing skills he had seen his sister use, but it would be worth it for this part of their journey and well in to the future. 

"Walker covered monsters so I will cover herbs!" Remey took over and was already looking around with a piercing gaze. "If you see a red moss that looks fluffy let me know. Don\'t touch it because it is very poisonous but it can be used for other things." 

Remey looked around a little more, "If you see a large patch of tiny green grass with purple flowers the size of droplets then we can try to pick them without rushing the flowers, I\'m not sure who named it purple drops but whoever did made it easy to identify. It is a high class mana potion ingredient but very hard to pick and protect in transport. Unless you have a Walker with you." 

Remey was all smiles saying this because she knew that Walker could use his inventory to store the purple drops herb away safely. It had been proved multiple times that it was a safe way to transport even delicate things and it made her much more confident in the fact that she could take some home for potions. 

"Unfortunately both herbs are only able to grow out in nature. The red moss dries up with the sun and it shouldn\'t be brought home because it released poisonous pollen that\'s safe outside but not inside. And the Purple drops are too delicate. If it is taken from the natural mana it will die right away. It also doesn\'t produce seeds and grows directly from the roots. Meaning that the patches we find are most likely many years old." 

"Three monsters to watch out for in particular and two herbs. I got it. I will keep an eye out." Gil was glad to have all the information since it would make things much easier for him while he was keeping an eye out in general. He would gladly point these things out while they traveled. 

Midnight released a loud snort from behind them followed by a slight hiss as she pulled back from something. "What\'s wrong?" Walker was immediately on alert since this was not a reaction that he was used to from Midnight.

"Sister says there is something that smells bad and hurts to sniff," Onyx replied instantly while Walker examined Midnight who was shaking her nose in annoyance. He used a healing spell on her just in case which appeared to relieve the annoyance. 

"What bothered you?"Walker looked at the area she had been sniffing and found some strange patterns on the rocks. "It almost looks like these rocks were, melting?"
