Arriving At The Elven Forest

-----

"We're back!" Emeraldine smiled. "Uncle, everyone…" She glanced into the far away forest, and the big tree in there.

We all did at the same time, expecting a view that would blow us away.

Yet…

When we landed eyes on that place, we felt… completely devastated.

The forest was dark, and several trees were leafless.

The ground was pitch black, with swamps everywhere.

And the smell of miasma spread everywhere.

At the same time, the big tree in the middle of the forest was darkened, as a strange, powerful evil energy constantly surged from within…

"N-No…" Emeraldine muttered. "W-What's going on?! This is not the forest… Is this another place?!"

"No, this is it!" Said Lucifer. "This… something has happened here for sure."

"I can feel the presence of one of my Fragments." Tyr appeared at my side. "Maria, this place has become a complete wasteland… A Danger Zone filled with monsters!"
