Not long after Gerenz Nuha left.
Fine snow began to fall from the sky.
As Melvin's territory was directly dissolved by Annan... the small barrier protecting this deep mountain also collapsed along with it.
In the past, this would mean this land had lost its protection. The mountain range leveled by Annan would inevitably be frozen and blanketed by this cursed snow. The wild animals that once lived here would also freeze to death and be reborn as Frost Beasts.
But now, since the Ancestor has awakened...
The small barriers built for insulation in various settlements have finally lost their relevance at this very moment.
Annan picked up the "Hand of Hope" lying on the ground.
It had already lost its radiant brilliance.
The once dazzling gold hand encircled by a mesmerizing rainbow glow had now turned into a dull and rusted brass-like arm. It no longer resembled a holy relic bone, but rather appeared as if it were a battered metallic glove picked out from a heap of junk.
