I just noticed that regardless of where inside the city area the Chieftain is, she always walks all the way to the Chieftain's Hut before she goes to a different area.
E.g.: I just had her go to open a chest, then I decided that she would go fishing to a spot close to where the chest was, and I watched her walk past the designated area, all the way up to the Chieftain's Hut, then come back down to the spot for fishing.
I am confused as to why this happens? Why can't she just go from one spot where the flag was, to the next spot where the flag is placed after that?
