Orion looked at Atlas, his faithful beast companion, who had just appeared before him. The Iron Hide Rhinoceros stood before him, towering over him with his massive frame, his dark hide gleaming in the sunlight.
As he stood before Atlas, Orion reached out and placed a hand on his massive horn, feeling the rough texture of the surface against his palm. He looked up at Atlas's eyes, which were a deep shade of brown, and he could see the intelligence and loyalty reflected in them.
Taking a deep breath, Orion reached into his pocket and pulled out the small, velvet-lined box containing the Beast Core that he had just obtained from the Beast Emporium. He looked down at the box and felt a sense of excitement and anticipation building within him. He knew that this core was special, and he couldn't wait to see how it would affect Atlas.
"Atlas," Orion said, holding the box out to his companion. "I have something for you."
