The night was drawing in; the bright sun had touched the horizon and was slowly sinking in the sea of monsters.
Deep in the twisted woods of the Elven Empire, a group of humans and an Elven runaway felt their hearts leaping to their chests. They were so tense that they had not even realized when their bodies had entered their fighting state.
Everyone only had a single question in their mind, though it was not the same for all of them.
The Emperor of the Feng Empire now stared at the… being that had attacked the elven priestess before, which now stood before them with a proud stride.
The first thing he noticed about the humanoid being as soon as it appeared in their sight was its lower body that resembled one of the horses but without the tail, yet its body remained covered in a sea of shimmering dark blue hair. Its skin was pale and dark; it matched the color of the dusky sky above.
