Tree of Life
The ancient monster, the serpent god Jormungand, had undergone a drastic transformation, expanding its body to nearly double its previous size. It seemed as though something of immense significance was brewing beneath its scaly exterior.
In response to this ominous development, King Ivaasar urgently commanded all within a 3-mile radius to retreat immediately. Despite engaging in combat with the monsters, the warriors heeded the king's call and executed a synchronized withdrawal, prioritizing their safety over the ongoing battle.
Tristan and his companions promptly retreated beyond the specified radius, adhering to the strategic plan formulated hours earlier. Positioned at a safe distance, Tristan observed with keen interest, curious to witness the unfolding events involving the formidable ancient monster.
