Kyle stared at the pool for one last time before turning to Lina so as to reply her question.
"It's a mana origin source—"
"An origin source?!" Lina repeated before Kyle could continue, with deep surprise evident in her expression and tone. They all knew what a mana origin source was as well its implications and everyone was similarly shocked to be standing before one.
"Yeah," Kyle continued with a nod. "It should be the reason for the beast tide. It is also the cause of the wolf's corruption."
They all nodded their heads in pondering expressions when they heard Kyle's explanation to them.
"It all makes sense," Finn said. "But... How come we didn't encounter any mana beast on our way yet?"
"True," Zara added. "A mana origin source is meant to attract alot of beasts as it can help them evolve if they cultivated within its vicinity."
With their speculations made, they all looked at Kyle, demanding answers.
