Wrathful Red Forest
A few days ago.
Before Freya and Tidebreaker reached the shores of Sunhaven.
Deep within a lush green forest that was as vast as one could imagine.
Earlier, this forest used to be nameless. It had no identifying marks on anyone's map.
However, a certain someone had decided to blow himself up along with Nira Nightshade's Alchemy Doll, making everyone take note of the forest eventually.
At this point, this forest was recognized as the Wrathful Red Forest.
The sky above this region was always red, and the woods of the forest had acquired deep red hues. Even the soil was red as if someone had soaked it in fresh blood.
This was not all. Even the mana beasts that called this forest their home had developed some red stripes on their skin.
The entire ecosystem in the forest had been altered, giving rise to various mutant mana beast species and some rare mana-rich resources that couldn't be found anywhere else.
