Before heading to the castle kingdom, Shadow ensured that Jennifer, Laura, and the rest had a hearty breakfast. Upon finishing, he gathered Laura and Jennifer for a briefing. "The route has extended; let's relish the drive," he advised. With a map in hand, Shadow plotted their path from Omri Ville to Foresville. Arriving in Foresville, he permitted them the honor of entering the castle first.

Inside, Shadow directed Jennifer and Laura to seats adjacent to Anthony, Jackson, and Kent. Soon after, he was beckoned by King Zian and Queen Inn. The king praised Shadow's commitment, seeking an update on the recent interrogations. In response, Shadow gave a score of 3, reflecting his minimal engagement with the royalty. Queen Inn engaged Shadow in a conversation about his 2023 travels, conveying her endorsement. Within this realm, King Zian and Queen Inn wield supreme control, with Shadow recognized as both a protector and a denizen.

Desiring a deeper understanding, Shadow engaged Queen Inn with further queries, fostering mutual trust. The Galaxy Shadow Team then initiated their tour of the domain. Queen Inn, however, urged them to walk, not run, and invited them back to the main hall for tea. Elated, Laura and Jennifer playfully cavorted in a multicolored circle.

Post-noon, they dined to rejuvenate. At Shadow's request, Queen Inn whipped up a vegetable pottage. Finding it delightful, Jennifer's reaction pleased Shadow and Laura, who also indulged. Over 10,000 people celebrated Queen Inn's culinary prowess, with some even proposing a chef's career for her. After the meal, Shadow applauded Queen Inn, expressing anticipation for more dishes in the future.

Yearning for ice cream, Shadow, Jennifer, and Laura tested the hue consistency between the packaging and flavor by stepping on the colored circle. Their results matched.

On their Samoko journey's subsequent day, Shadow ventured into uncharted territories. Kent proposed using maps to pinpoint the swamp in the Student Kingdom. This swamp, distant from their Omri Ville lodging, had enticed Shadow online with its verdant landscapes, tranquil lake, boat excursions, and quaint homes. Laura, Jennifer, Anthony, Paul, Benjamin, and Evan unanimously backed this notion.

Shadow, boarding a vessel to a timber bridge, allowed Laura and Jennifer to accompany him on the prolonged ride. Caution! There are alligators and snakes in the water. You need to choose the correct path and avoid going the wrong way. If you take the wrong path, Cocojin will bite you.The remainder followed in another boat. Upon reaching the swamp's conclusion, they fed the ravenous fish. They then retraced their steps, embarking on another boat.

For elucidation, Shadow unveiled facts about the Fores Peninsula:

The Fores Peninsula unified three nations: Omriville, Student Kingdom, and Snow Diamond. These countries were subdivided into provinces: Foresville (Omri Ville), Santa Harmonika (Student Kingdom), and Santa Diamondia (Snow Diamond). Santa Diamondia, notorious for its perilous landscape, ambushes, venomous fauna, and thick vegetation, was off their itinerary. They intended to traverse the Bossori Canal via canoe.

Bossori Canal, Central Samoko's grandest canal, was distinguished by its toxic waters, multiple vessels, amphibians, and serpents. This canal, more treacherous than the Santa Harmonika Marsh, was identifiable by its ebony waters.

The Diamondian-Studenti Friendship Border divided the Student Kingdom and Snow Diamond. This boundary mandated a roadside switch, with Snow Diamond adhering to the right and the Student Kingdom to the left. An X-shaped thoroughfare ensured a seamless transition. This vicinity offered buses, minivans, lavatories, eateries, and outdoor metallic seating, especially for those in passport queues.

Shadow's elucidation clarified the group's perceptions.

Later, they visited a shopping precinct, encountering Johnny and his sibling Alice. Engaging with Alice, Shadow was apprised of guidelines and imparted valuable insights. Subsequently, he shared tales with Johnny.

Concluding their Central Samoko expedition, Shadow conversed with Queen Inn and King Zian about their impending Pemos voyage. Their Central Samoko return was slated for September 25, sans plans for any imminent kingdom visits.
