"Imperial Tomb?" Sharky and the others exclaimed, stupefied. They hadn't expected the map to actually take them to such a place.
The surrounding guards moved closer. The one in the lead waved his hand, gesturing to capture the group. Soon afterward, several people appeared from within the forest, surrounding them.
Sharky's group was quite troubled. They obviously didn't fear such soldiers, but they were in the Fiend King Court at the moment. If they started a conflict with the soldiers at the Imperial Tomb, it would be hard to clean up the situation later.
Alina walked over and said with a smile, "I apologize. We are from the Snake race and came with the Fiend Emperor's invitation to participate in the general assembly. We were unfamiliar with the Fiend King Court, and while following this flourishing city's beauty, we accidentally stumbled into this place."
