Fearful Resistance

Days passed as the two of them traveled through the region, heading towards the Forest of Fear.

The deeper they got into the Beast Domain, the harder it became to travel through.

The air grew denser.

The gravity grew higher.

Their speed reduced as each step grew just a little more difficult than before.

Rui hadn't noticed this before because they circled around the edges of the Beast Domain when traveling to the Valley of Prisms. In other words, he never traveled deeper into the Beast Domain during that time.

However, now that they were actively heading into the Beast Domain, both Rui and Kane could feel that the average harshness of the environment was rising, slowing them down.

Rui couldn't imagine how difficult it must be to travel in the inner half of the Beast Domain if they were already experiencing such a significant difference shortly after traveling deeper into the region.
