Chương 41: Side Story: The Explorers

Day 1

Beneath the great shadow of the Orokin Mountain Range, the group of explorers stood poised to venture into the unknown. Their objective lay in the uncharted lands beyond the colossal peaks, a promise of discovery and potential prosperity. The mountain's gnarled heights stood like jagged teeth against the sky, their snow-capped peaks glimmering in the early morning sun as if smiling a cold, foreboding welcome.

Towering over the already massive peaks, Mount Tenno looked down upon them, whispering "You are not ready" with each glacial gale.

The party of four at the forefront was a blend of audacious bravery and magical prowess. They were the vanguard, the trailblazers for the larger group trailing behind them - a thousand-strong expedition of men and women of various trades, all united by a common hope to establish an outpost on the other side of the mountains.
