The closest entropy anomaly was north-west where it bordered the territories of three macrobes groups. The location they had landed within was a group with the largest territory with the lowest population density, something that they estimated would allow them to navigate the territory properly.
"We go north, as planned." Ria pointed. "We go through the mountains that seemed to have minimal macrobe presence, and we avoid the population centers in the iron forest that they seemed to have created for themselves. Let's get started. I want to cover as much distance as possible before we rest for a break."
The iron forest was what they had come to refer to as the protruding tree-like structures of refined iron that stuck out from the ground. Although they were relatively confident that the structures were artificially created by the macrobes, they weren't entirely aware.
