He claims no knowledge of the man who disappeared, even though the missing man had worked as the ranger just before him. In the little village down the mountain, the shopkeepers will do the same and deny they ever saw or knew the man.

One night, unable to get the attention of the bartender in her local, she walks out without paying for her wine.
