In the Central Zone of Frozen Hell, as the Snow Desert blizzard finally faded, small outcroppings of mountains revealed themselves, encircling larger, denser peaks like ancient guardians.
These inner mountains stood tall and formidable, their jagged peaks coated in snow, casting long shadows over the icy terrain.The ground beneath them was a harsh mix of packed snow and sharp, uneven stones—cold, cruel, and unforgiving.
Where the outer ridges ended and the central range began, a narrow canyon-like path cut through the rock, hidden between two towering mountains like a secret gate.
This was the road to the inner circle.And beyond it… lay Phoenix Mountain.
The narrow path was flanked on both sides by jagged rock walls, their edges like crude blades. The ground itself was littered from beginning to end with sharp stones—some small, some large, all merciless.
