There was a land that was home to a few extraordinary creatures, a refuge for a sinister breed that couldn't exist in a standard ecosystem. It was said that those who ventured here were all subject to their whim, but if they defeated them, the rewards would be more than worth it.
Looking at it more closely, one would see a land that was divided from the Greater Plains regions by a massive wooden bridge that created a path over a giant chasm.
A massive sign was also erected above the wooden bridge with the fine words - Warning: You are approaching the Crimson Blade Mantis Zone, proceed with caution!
At this moment, Nero and had already ventured to the edge of this sector. He stood at the summits of a cliff as he gazed into the distance beyond the bridge. The wind rustled his hair along with his furry martial coat.
