Is 帰る correct in this sentence?


> ハンダは魔女たちの言葉を覚えて、川べりへ帰りました。

Is 帰る correct in this sentence? ハンダ is a name of my character.

Can I say 川べりへ using へ?

I wanted to write: Handa remembered witches spell and then go back to the
river shore.




It depends on the context: 帰る is usually used when returning to one's own
house/home/homeland, whereas 戻る is used when returning to a place that isn't
those things.
