"Is there a problem?" Arianna asked when she noticed that Aiden had been taken aback by what he saw.
Aiden shook his head and said, "No, not at all. But we aren't the only mages here."
He hadn't seen anyone from Dragonhold in such a while that it was hard for him not to react the way he did.
"Oh? From our guild or the others?" she asked for more clarity.
"They are not Xathians. They are mages from Dragonhold," Aiden replied. Then he remembered the view of the map he had seen earlier.
Geshu Mountains was within the Xathian border, but it wasn't far from Dragonhold territory as a whole.
At that point, the system sent him a new quest:
[New Side Quest Assigned]
[Side Quest: Find the Purple Hermis Stone]
[Rewards: ??]
[Bonus Reward: ??]
[Duration: ??]
He nodded seeing that quest, then said to Arianna, "Let's start looking."
And with that, they both set off along the path, hoping to find the Purple Hermis Stone somewhere.
