The southern border of the Black Forest.
As Orion prepared to leave his territory, a swirl of emotions churned within him—excitement, unease, fear, and a strange eagerness to face the unknown. It was a complex mix, difficult to put into words.
"Dear Orion, the scouts report that we're approaching Thunderwood Forest!" Lilith called out, her voice carrying a hint of excitement. With Delilah staying behind to oversee the horde, Lilith had taken over intelligence and logistics. For someone stepping out of the Black Forest for the first time, every piece of information was a novelty.
"Pass the order: we're heading to the Gathering Grounds," Orion instructed.
Lilith nodded and summoned a succubus bloodline warrior to relay the command. Behind Orion, Onyx and Thundar followed closely. Like Lilith, Thundar was also leaving the Black Forest for the first time, and he had many questions for Onyx.
