It's a fantasy role-playing game.

DM: You are Keyleth, a half-elf druid . You are the member of the famous group of adventurers. Previously, Percy offers to show Tary his library at some point, and does show off the mechanism of Bad News. Tary, remembering his fee, writes Vox Machina a check for 16,000 gold (50,000 originally, minus expenses).
DM: It's in essentially a heavy valley of stone in the center of the Cliffkeep Mountain range. It is far from civilization, it's maybe a few days of heavy mountain-- constant hiking north of where Kraghammer is.
Player: Oh. We'd have to hike to get there? No, there's gotta be trees that I can Tree Stride there to.
DM: There are a couple that aren't too far outside of Terra that you can Tree Stride to.
Player: We're druids, there's gotta be trees within that camp, right? And stuff?
DM: Yeah.
Player: Like, nearby?
DM: Yes, I'm saying that there are some that are like, just in the outskirts of Terra, none directly in it.
