On a mountain foraging trip, two kids—Ryan and Lola—are told to play while the adults search for food. The protagonist activates a system that dings, detecting fertilized eggs of an extinct bird valued at 100 gold each. Struggling to climb, they harvest five eggs amid teasing about weak stamina and the protagonist's old, bedridden past. They joke about buying a camera and selling photos if they return to modern times; a subtitle even notes Julian Ford transmigrated and survives by stealing bird eggs. A sudden cry—"Is that Lola crying?"—breaks the moment, leaving safety and the eggs unresolved.
