Meanwhile, after a few minutes of walking through the rocky cavern, they finally arrived at a path that led outside the mountain.
Seeing the bright, sunny light at the edge of the cave, Orion and Aerialia followed, watching White Flame arrive at the border and walk out before freezing.
"What… is this?" White Flame asked with a tinge of surprise, turning his head from side to side to take in the desolate, dead land that stretched into the horizon.
He then shifted his attention towards Orion, who stood behind him.
"Why is the earth like this? Where are the animals? What happened here?" he asked frantically.
Orion shook his head in response, "This is how it's been for a very long time, and unfortunately, no one knows why it became like this," he responded.
