Seeing that the mist is beginning to thicken, Kaito grips the hilt of his sword tighter. He knows that the Troll Forest is a place full of mystery and danger, but the thick, unearthly mist surrounding him indicates that something far more sinister than usual is going on. This time, he's not dealing with just a Hell Bear or a creature like the others.
His thoughts turn to the stories he had heard about the place, legends about dark creatures that haunted unsuspecting travelers, but he knows that these stories were not real, could not be, as he never experienced anything of the sort when he visited this region in Death Tower. However, as he has never explored this forest in depth in the past, he begins to worry about what might be beyond his expectations, and beyond his knowledge, not least because he only chose to traverse this dangerous place because he rightly knows how to combat anything that might threaten him.
