[Nero's been taking enough excursions into the forests for a variety of reasons -- cleaning up shrines, or escorting a few worshipers, or going out to kill one of those giant boars for a community stew -- that he's gotten way better at navigating through it. Combined with a series of small claw marks he's left in the trees (or sometimes with his tail, if he's being honest), he can track through pretty easily now.

There's no path leading directly to the shrine that ate his arm, but it gets close enough. Even if everything feels like it gets way too tight before it opens up again.]

Yeah. Deeper in. [He doesn't need to say that's classic trap material; Wanda would know, too. But he can't just... leave it. It's not the kind of guy he is. And fuck, who knew Solvunn would have mysteries in it? He hasn't even brought it up with anyone from the settlement. Just seemed like a bad idea.

And now they got an extra stone from Thor. Nero has the sense Thor being gone and the shrine aren't connected, but he can't help but. Wonder.]

After we set this one up, we'll check. See if it's still pointin'. Then... I guess follow it? [He looks at her, and it's an honest question.] Feels like we're gonna get into trouble.
