My hand glides across the barrier leading into The Restricted Zone known as The Eternal Flower Hills. It's been registered as a newly discovered location in my Discovered Locations Tab. Restricted Zones adjust their difficulty to make entering and exploring the area hard. When the description says chances of death are always high, it's true. I use Scan on the barrier.
[Restricted Zone: The Eternal Flower Hills]
[Details: An ancient location that has drawn many powerful creatures to it due to the magical ingredients that grow in its fields and forests. Notable Alchemy Ingredients are known as The Maiden's Deceit and Wet Pedals. Powerful monsters are common here. Such as Raging Super Hornet or Death Snakes of Rezzoixs.]
[Difficulty Adjustment: Due to your Gear, Player Level, Combat Skills, and Class Grade. All enemies have been given a 500% Boost to Health and Mana. However, EXP gained has also been boosted by 75 percent.]
[Do you wish to enter?: Yes/No]
I finish reading the information on the screen, which is all new to me. The Loremaster in me is taking all this in with excitement. Until today, I've never been to or heard of The Eternal Flower Hills. My hand hovers over the Yes button, and I click it. The barrier opens to the exact dimensions as a door in front of me. I take a step through the perimeter, and I can already tell this will be tough.
The air is heavy, and despite the sun and general positive look of the forest around me, I know there are some deadly monsters here. The details didn't give information about how big the Restricted Zone is, and that's normal. The System leaves a lot to be discovered and interpreted on your own. You can draw conclusions from the Details given to you.
For example, the Details say fields and forests. Meaning multiple fields and forests. This tells me there is a lot of land in this Restricted Zone, and it'll be hard to find The Maiden's Deceit. "I wonder if I can find and kill the boss of the Restricted Zone..." I'd love to try, but my mission for Tesha comes first. Meaning it's time to get searching.
Now, if I was a deadly beautiful flower, where would I be... Somewhere I can get sunlight and a place that gives easy access to me... This is a possibility. Tesha never specified where to find The Maiden's Deceit inside The Eternal Flower Hills. That must mean they stick out once you see them. The Player in me is saying they're deeper in the Restricted Zone.
The first place I should look once I get deeper inside is fields since that's where flowers like to grow. Based on the Lore, Maiden's would have easily found them. That's the conclusion I draw from the Lore, anyway. "Let's get this show on the road." I start making my way deeper into the forest, and after about 45 meters. A giant mountain lion leaps at me from a tree.
I'm barely able to dodge, and I'm using Dark Burst on it a second later. It connects, but as I look at its health bar, it's only lost about 12 percent of its health. "You've got to be kidding me..." This is the first creature I've come across that has tanked one of my attacks so much. I start using all the Combat Skills at my disposal. This Restricted Zone is no joke.

Jake Heiler didn't have any useful information on him, and he's not The Darkness Incarnate. "We'll need to return to The Church of Light Mother Gleawern. I need to inform the Arch-Duke Frasier Barxoes of our progress. Or lack thereof." My party and I have been chasing leads and coming up with nothing. We need a new strategy and something that'll actually help us.
We make it to the Teleportation Platform and select the Merchant City of Lerosso, the Northern part of the Termal Empire. The Teleportation powers up and we're all taken in a flash of light. After a couple of seconds, we land on another Teleportation Platform. I look around and Lerosso is still as busy as ever. I'm even seeing players now.
