Forest of Death.
In the middle of a forest stood a castle that was accompanied by all the decaying ground, trees, and animal bones, giving a rather gloomy and eerie feeling.
A man stood on the balcony while looking at the sky.
"What are you doing, Elysion? Looking at the ash in the sky?" Hel walked to the balcony while furrowing her eyebrows. "Well, I can sense a lot of deaths from this. The ash that covers the entire world, huh?"
"Yeah." Elysion had a sad smile on his face. "This is the beginning of everything. Right after the 534th new year, the world was experiencing the largest volcanic eruption in mankind's history. The ash from that mountain covered the entire world, causing a long winter.
"Everything went into a downward spiral after that. It killed more than 80% of the human population in this land, allowing the aliens to push forward by ignoring the ash.
