Alex met up with his elders in the Snowpass city, which was nearly at the edge of the Eastern Continent. Just a few minutes of flight from here was the ocean toward the north. Toward the east, a couple of hours of flight would lead them to their Beast's Paradise.

"It's alright," Alex said. "I was never in any real danger. Besides, the Emperor saved me minutes after I was taken to the other location."

"But it could have been dangerous," Liang Shufen said. "We failed in saving you."

"It's alright," Alex said. "I'm fine and that's all that matters. Besides, I wasn't really ever in danger. I could've run away anytime I wanted to. I stuck around because the man had stolen my ring and I wanted it back."
