The darkness of night had descended, in this cloudy evening, the fog evaporating from the nearby lake surged over, completely immersing the forest in a darkness where one could not see their own hand in front of their face. Except for the occasional rustle of a foraging animal running across the fallen leaves, even the owls have closed their mouths in this foggy night.
The forest located to the northeast of Lake Radoga is situated in the northernmost part of Lapland. This forest, which experienced snowfall all year round, had nothing to offer other than timber and stones. However, there have been people in V.E Company's uniform carrying strange instruments to this place. After taking away a few black stones, this well-known company never sent anyone here again.
"Look, those southerners who always come and go in a hurry,"
The nearby hunter villagers opined, shrugged, laughed, and then continued to hustle for their livelihood.
