As Pepper grappled with clearing a special quest, unlocking greaves, and acquiring the unique relic weapon Radiant Dragonius modeled after Siegverum, Sovereign of the Skies, Shangri-La Frontier's forums blazed with fervor.
It began when a player spotted Siegverum, one of the seven mightiest unique monsters, soaring over the capital Nineshill toward the Verdant Hollow to glimpse Pepper, posting the sighting online.

712: Basashimusashi

713: Honomika
Wha!?
714: Primitia
Wait, Siegverum!?
715: Pobera
No way!?
716: Tungsten
A unique monster!?
717: Drops
WHAT!?
718: Add
One of the seven strongest, just revealed recently! Where's it headed?
719: Protogon
No clue… it was sudden…
720: Zankuro
I'd blank out too…
721: Dictator
Understandable.
722: Rukuruku
Agreed.
723: Loppiyar
Yup.
724: Basashimusashi
Siegverum, huh? Isn't it supposed to be at some mountain peak?
725: Lorelei
Yeah, heard that.
726: Gummies
Breaking: Hidden area found in Verdant Hollow.
Breaking: Siegverum landed there.
727: Ruruparis
!?!
728: Seapants7
What!?
729: Drops
HUH!?
730: Jarack
Where? Details, please.
731: Gummies
Location: Edge of Verdant Hollow, near Twin Emperor Trees—huge trees forming a coliseum-like space. It landed there.
732: Dowmy
Didn't know that area existed.
733: Tungsten
Another new area discovered.
734: Kekekera
Intriguing…
735: Honomika
Yup.
736: Basashimusashi
Forget that, what's Siegverum doing?
737: Gummies
Breaking: Siegverum took off from hidden area. Pioneers blown away, most heavily injured, some dead.
738: Loppiyar
WHAAAAAT!?
739: Drops
No way!?
740: Seapants7
HUH!?
741: Tungsten
Killing players with a wingbeat? Seriously?
742: Dictator
Talk about overwhelming…
743: Rukuruku
Truly the mightiest.
744: Dowmy
Why'd Siegverum land at the Twin Emperor Trees?
745: Primitia
Good question…
746: Ruruparis
Looking for food?
747: Kekekera
Could it be… herbivorous?
748: Basashimusashi
No way, dragons are carnivorous lizards, right?
749: Drops
Golden dragon (herbivore).
750: Thundernut
LOL wwww
751: Seapants7
Straight out of a manga?
752: Palmapiooki
Guys… caught something crazy… posting image… I'm done… collapses

753: Tungsten
New info?
754: Add
Siegverum mid-flight? Nice shot!
755: Basashimusashi
Epic. Golden dragon against the Twin Trees, soaring—pure art.
756: Primitia
…Wait? Isn't someone on Siegverum's left hand?
757: Dictator
Huh?
758: Loppiyar
What?
759: Ruruparis
Oh, you're right…
760: Honomika
!?
761: Jarack
WHAAAT!?
762: Drops
Someone's riding it!?
763: Add
Wait, what…?
764: Basashimusashi
What's going on? Riding a unique monster's hand?
765: Grecklin
…There's something else, right? Around here in the image.

766: Thundernut
Hmm? …A black Vorpal Bunny?
767: Seapants7
Why a Vorpal Bunny?
768: Tungsten
What's the deal? Those beasts can't be tamed, right?
769: Ruruparis
Nope, untamable.
770: Primitia
What's happening?
771: Grecklin
Guys… enhanced the image of the rider on Siegverum's hand…

772: Loppiyar
Pepper…? As in, Pepper?
773: Seapants7
PEPPER!? WHAT!?
774: Add
For real?
775: Basashimusashi
!?
776: Drops
What's going on?
777: Vaivart
Pepper's got a dedicated "Pepper Hunt" thread lately. He's the player with Lycaon's Curse Marking on his right hand, hiding it.
778: Vaivart
Also, he faced Lycaon, proved his strength, got marked. Heard Saiga-100 and Kyoju scouted him after.
779: Vaivart
Oh, and Arthur Pencilgon from Ashura-kai named Pepper as his prey.
780: Rukuruku
What's all this!?
781: Seapants7
Info flood, lol!
782: Basashimusashi
So, Pepper's got a way to summon Siegverum?
783: Primitia
Huh?
784: Tungsten
Seriously?
785: Thundernut
Calling a random-encounter unique monster? How?
786: Primitia
I'm lost…
787: Sazarun
Pepper's nuts. Worth more than gold—billion-level value.
788: Pobera
Black Vorpal Bunny's weird, but riding Siegverum? Insane.
789: Dictator
He might have some unknown unique ability.
790: Kekekera
Siegverum's contact point is supposedly the Celestial Highlands. Maybe heading to Tembart or Fortian.
791: Basashimusashi
I'm in Tembart. Gonna hunt for Pepper.
792: Loppiyar
Bet the Pepper Hunt thread's exploding.
793: Tungsten
Unique-derived info is gold. Gotta get it.
794: Drops
Desire is justice!
795: Benegrit
Things are heating up!
