This is the first time Lie Mo sees something like this. There is just open space.

  The green is way brighter.

  And the sky is visible all the way to the horizon.

  In the forest he always had to find a cliff to have some kind of overview. Or he had to find a lake if he wanted to see some open space. But this is something completely different.

  It’s like a clearing, but big. Really big.

  There are entire hills that have no trees on them. Lie Mo is just standing there observing the beauty. Who cares about forests and caves when you can have this.

  Not only is the landscape different, the people also wear different clothes. The clothes are brighter and seem to be lighter. Lie Mo stands out with his fur clothes. And that is what he is trying to avoid.

  The tale has been taken without authorization; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.

  If he want’s to disappear, he needs to know what most people wear, how they talk and how they think. And then he somehow needs to get a pair of clothes.

  As long as he isn’t seen nobody cares what clothes he is wearing.

  That’s great.

  That way he can delay getting new clothes until he knows what is most suited for his goals.

  Lie Mo steps out of the forest.

  And then he disappears into the fields.

  Those fields are annoying.

  They are all filled with water.

  What’s up with that?

  At least the plants are tall enough that Lie Mo can use them to hide himself.

  His first goal is to first get a bit of a distance between him and the forest. A few days should be enough.

  He is surprised at how many villages there are each day. He has never seen so many people. After three days have passed he has seen more villages here than he has seen in the forest ever since the big incidence.

  That is a good sign. The more people the more chaos to hide behind.

  On the next morning Lie Mo is ready to start exploring the culture of the field people.

  He starts sneaking up to people.

  The people here are way more interested in what happens outside of their village.

  And that is great.

  Lie Mo is able to learn quite a bit on a variety of topics. The topics span from the daily business to the people in power to the names of villages around.

  After acquiring both knowledge and their dialect there is another thing that is still missing. And this is his clothes.

  Should he rob a traveling person or a house?
