Karsha woke up just as the person finished speaking. His vision cleared instantly, revealing the back of the figure standing before him. The first thing Karsha noticed was the ears—longer than his own, signaling that the person was an Elf. The figure was also taller, with a build more refined and powerful than his. Just staring at this stranger's back made Karsha feel insignificant.
"If you keep staring at me like that, people might start calling you a pervert," the voice said, snapping Karsha back to reality. He quickly walked forward and, stopping about 30 meters from the figure, asked, "Excuse me, but is this heaven?"
The person's laughter echoed through the space they were in. "Hahahahaha! Follow me," the figure said, and with a snap of his fingers, their surroundings changed. They now stood before a waterfall, the setting strikingly similar to the place where Karsha had once cultivated in the Purple Tail Anaconda Sanctuary—Queen's Embrace.
