"And that's the end of the story... You guys liked it?"
Despite Katherine having finished the story, all five of them remained silent until Sophia spoke up first.
"That story was amazing, Mom... I never knew there was so much backstory to the dwarfs and gnomes."
"Thank you... Anyway, look like we're almost there now."

From the black grass to all the trees having no leaves, there were barely any signs of life.
"Mom, is the dungeon we're going towards formed by one of these anomalies?" Alex curiously asked.
"Yep... Fortunately, this one has become smaller over the years, so it's actually relatively safe for us to visit."
"Wait, Mom, are we heading to Nytheris?" Mary suddenly asked after matching the story from earlier.
"Good guess... Do you remember I said Nytheris is permanently sealed underground——"
