In the eastern part of the Shattered Domain, a caravan moved slowly, accompanied by brightly armored cavalry, with flags waving in the midst of the convoy, prominently adorned with the character "Zhao."
In the center of the convoy was a boat-shaped vehicle, thirty feet long and ten feet high, featuring a black body with gold trim. The large wheels of the vehicle did not touch the ground but floated, moving so smoothly that it was hard to feel it moving.
The windows of the vehicle were deep and shielded by mana, preventing any outside scrutiny, yet those inside could easily see out. A young girl inside quietly watched the scenery and suddenly said, "This place is teeming with life, not like what the books describe with deadly miasma stretching for miles and poisoned waters everywhere."
Also inside the carriage sat an elderly man, holding an ancient book, his long eyebrows nearly reaching his chest, his age indeterminable.
