Into the Tiger's Den

It didn't take Ryu long to find the information he needed. He looked like a noble young man, and he had apparently come at a time where people of this 'small' city were quite willing to accept tourists.

This place was known as Cloudy City, surprisingly not named after the environment, but rather the cloudy Beast Cores they were known to have an excess of. It seemed that those stone-like beasts tended to have Beast Cores that looked like that as Beast Core reflected their affinities. It was actually a cloud that made the Beast Cores of this region act like this, though. It was rather a plume of dust.

Regardless, this place was still known as Cloudy City and it was located within the Stone Prefecture, headed by the Stone Edge Sect and within the Southern Region.
