Orion and his forces had left Moonshadow Valley and arrived at the southernmost part of the Black Forest, where the dense woods stretched before them.
"Chieftain, once we cross this river, we'll be out of the Black Forest and into Thunderwood Forest," said Thrym, a giant who had survived the last Myriad Races Invasion.
After enduring the trials of the dark beast tides, Thrym had grown even stronger, now reaching Hero-level. For this invasion, Thrym had been appointed as Orion's guide.
Orion nodded silently, his gaze fixed on the distant Thunderwood Forest across the river.
After a long pause, Orion turned to Prophet Onyx and asked, "Prophet, do you know why this forest is called Thunderwood Forest?"
Prophet Onyx, who had been staring at the forest as well, sighed. It had been centuries since he last set foot in this region.
