Is this passage correctly worded?

While Tol was gone, Miya and Kiya informed Egrin about what had happened to them over the previous six years. After the sisters had completed their tale, Tol returned to the hut and revealed his decision. Tol blamed himself for Nazramin being able to seize the throne and for the loss of Valaran, but he had decided that the defense of the empire was no longer his responsibility. Valaran was also searching for Tol at that time, and hired a half-elven huntress named Zala to find the exiled warlord and bring him to Daltigoth. Valaran told Zala to begin her search in Juramona, which she thought would be the best place to find clues to Tol’s whereabouts. Zala immediately departed Daltigoth, and after many days of travel, which included avoiding marauding nomads, she reached Juramona.

Thanks a lot for your awesome advice. Could this revision work for the last sentence? Zala immediately departed Daltigoth, and after many days of travel, during which she had to avoid marauding nomads, she reached Juramona.
