A child of Mossward has been dared by the town bully to make a dangerous run, and she wants to make sure it's possible before she makes the attempt.
'You look pretty tough to me. You're not scared of anything, are you?
'Maybe you can help me, then. The Mossward town bully has dared me to run to a certain spot north of town, right on the very edge of the Wadewater, and then come back... all in ten minutes! Now I'm not afraid, but I want to be certain it's possible. So what do you say to using no more than five minutes to run out there, and then five minutes to run back? That way I'll know it can be done before I make the attempt.
'Here, I'll mark it on your map. It's right here.'
Alla has given you five minutes to reach the spot in question on the edge of the Wadewater, north of Mossward.
Alla is by a haystack in north-eastern Mossward. You only have five minutes for the return journey!
