Emerging from the watery embrace of Elysia's magic, Xin and Princess Hilda found themselves in a lush forest, its verdant expanse stretching out before them.
In the heart of this woodland paradise lay a serene frozen lake, its shimmering waters reflecting the dappling sunlight.
"This is the closest water source I can access for transportation," Elysia explained. "However, I must confess, I am unfamiliar with this world. I cannot guarantee the safety of this area."
Princess Hilda's apprehension was palpable, her gaze darting around the surroundings.
Xin, however, reassured her. "It's alright, Elysia. We appreciate your assistance."
A radiant smile crossed Elysia's features. "I cannot linger for long, I'm afraid. Eternia consumes a considerable amount of my mana, and I must return to Abundant Shore soon. Will you be alright here?"
