As the days passed Violet and Luna slowly delved deeper into the Elemental Valley. The further east they traveled the greater the mana density and the more common it was for them to encounter beasts over level 40. In fact they discovered that they were no longer able to fly freely as flying beasts far above them in strength dominated the skys.
They learnt that the hard way on the second day when a small flock of odd 4 winged giant sparrows dove and attacked them. They only managed to survive thanks to a healthy mix of luck and skill, and liberal use of void step. That is one thing they learnt then, thanks to both of them having the skill when Luna was on Violet's back they could actually travel together when Violet activated the skill. Granted Violet couldn't travel as far as she could by herself as the distance seemed to be limited by Luna's low level with it. Still it was a great discovery and was very welcome.
