After departing from Nithroel's safe house, Michael used a teleportation scroll gifted to him by Elidyr to arrive at the ominous Demon's Grave. The skies above the grave were a crimson red, creating an eerie atmosphere that matched the terrifying landscape. Michael's first objective was to locate the Queen's energy crystal and fulfill his promise to her. However, before he could do that, he had to ascend to the level 2 of Godhood, the demi-god level.
In the distance, Mount Hades belched volcanic fumes into the crimson sky. The forge beneath the mountain awaited Michael's return, but for now, he had a different destination in mind. To trigger a heavenly tribulation and attain demi-god level power, he needed to face extreme heat. Mount Hades, with its bubbling lava and scorching temperatures, offered the perfect opportunity.
