Some information to consider:

Riding camels, the trip from Hagalton to the border of Motter’s territory was a three-day ride (75 miles). After entering the Gam’A Zone, you were teleported by a mysterious sky flash to another location within Motter’s Territory of the Gam’A Zone. There, you encountered a patrol of sentinel robots (Sentivocs) before coming across the tower fortress. You are not sure of your current location relative to the point of entry and therefore not certain how far away Hagalton lies.

Of the five who entered from Hagalton, four remain. This means you have five camels at your disposal. Podo is too large to ride a camel, but Anton, Urlando and Saiph can utilize two of the camels for travel. Saiph is small enough ride with another; Anton can take Bruce’s camel and Urlando can borrow Kurot’s, who can walk at a pace matching the slowest member (Podo).

Using Podo as the limiter, you may travel a maximum of 10 miles per day.

Can Denslow ride a camel? He’s pretty den-slow himself.

Yes, I considered that. I imagine a special saddle for his plantient type.

Urlando could amplimorph into a rat form if needed for travel. (Frees up a camel.)

Great idea, I forgot about that.

"From my remembrance of the map, we should head west. Perhaps on our journey will find an indication of how far north or south we are."
