Urja Forest, Pelian.
The group descended down the dips in the ever-snowy lands. The Sacred Forest nurtured a lot of creatures that had an affinity for the cold. All year round, everything remained lathered in snow and ice; the mana here which carried a queer bit of persistent frost that commonfolk wouldn't be able to live through, was likely the cause.
Yuyui felt an odd sense of intimacy with this place even though she shouldn't have. She had only been through this place twice and both times, she remembered being scared for her life. The last time she crossed the frozen forest was after Skullius had rescued her from the Temple of Unlusted Tears. They had been passing through on their way to Genhuis City when Skullius had suddenly lost his Hybrid Luman form, turning into the Penetrator for the first time before her.
