Ash took a few steps farther into the ruins. In the distance, she could see the temple Magia had shown her in her dreams. Kaori walked to the left, inspecting a few crumbled buildings.
"Wow," Kaori said. "How old do you think this place is?"
"I don't know," Ash replied.
So, she thought, we just have to find the Nightmare and kill it. Of course… At some point, I need to head over there, so I can talk to Magia. But, there's no guarantee that the Nightmare is at that specific part of this town. It could be in one of these old houses as far as we know.
"Everything is so… crusty."
"Yeah."
"Ugh, everything smells so weird too. Did the letter say where this thing was?" Kaori asked.
"Nah. We'll have to find it ourselves." Ash transformed her weapon into a sword. "Keep your guard up."
"Right." Kaori did the same.
