"What help can you offer us?" The spirit swordavatar vibrated softly, emitting an aura that promised a fatal strike if the answer was unsatisfactory.
"The magical formation beneath me… it does not lead to the true Dragon Mausoleum," the serpent revealed. "It leads to a realm between illusion and reality. A place called the Azure Mirage. That realm is filled with monsters called Lunarfin, creatures formed from my own siphoned power."
