The east tunnels are not the path to the city Alzar was expecting to take that go over the mountains, but instead go underneath a peak and continue up into a much smaller vale on the other side. He has not been that way before though.
Garinda turns to Alzar and asks that he go and procure aid from Marilla. He agrees. It is almost evening, so he stays the night in the Happy Farmer before setting out the following day.
Alzar leaves behind most of his things. It’s not like he suspects to run into a random library on the way and will wish for his lab. Instead he is just going to take one horse, food and drink, a basic set of supplies, and his normal items. On horseback, it should take about six days to reach the tunnels.
