Zephyrion's expression shifted as Arlon explained. "Ah, do you mean the stone that came from space?"
"Huh?" Arlon blinked, caught off guard by the statement.
"Yes, the Samera Stone," Zephyrion continued. "It is said to have arrived in Trion long ago, falling from the heavens during a meteor shower. Many believe it is not of this world."
Arlon's mind raced. He had never considered the origin of the Samera Stone before. To players, it was simply a quest trigger—an unassuming object in the marshlands.
But to hear it described as an artifact from space added an entirely new layer to its significance.
"So… you knew about the stone?" Arlon asked, trying to mask his surprise.
"Of course," Zephyrion said, smirking slightly. "It's no secret among scholars and administrators. But its true purpose remains a mystery. Few have dared to venture into the marsh to study it closely, as the area is teeming with dangerous creatures."
