The child seems calmer after this encounter, and a quick study of the modest home reveals sufficient provision for one of such modest size to keep body and soul together for at least a period of some days, allowing for the sure supply of fresh goat's milk.
Once set upon the barely discernable road -- or, more properly, footpath -- heading in the direction indicated, the adventurers, reaching a place of some altitude, discern, at a considerable distance, certain notable features of the landscape. To wit, a series of ancient stone structures, these being known, locally, as Mên-an-Tol, Men Scryfa, and Boskedan Stone Circle. These are at no great distance from each, it seems. Beyond these may be discerned the so-called Venton Bebibell Holy Well, and beyond that, an ennead of monoliths known as the Nine Maidens. There do not appear to be any other travelers in this windswept region.
