[Late night, deep mountain valley of Taurus territory.]
"Ugh, so annoying!!"
The Saintess pulled at her hair and looked up at the sky. Unlike the forest's darkness, it was a time when sunlight itself was slowly disappearing.
"Where did everyone go?!"
The Saintess scanned her surroundings, but no one was there. At first glance, it looked like the Saintess had gotten lost and become separated, but in fact, everyone except the Saintess was trapped in a barrier and couldn't get out.
"It should be around here...."
The Saintess diligently erased traces of various magic circles on the ground.
"Ugh, where is everyone...?"
The forest barrier that disrupted perception became more like a maze the deeper one went, and only the Saintess could find the right path and escape.
'What if monsters appear?!'
Caw, caw.
The surrounding atmosphere was eerie, as if monsters would pop out any moment. The Saintess became anxious, worried she might become a departed soul before finding anyone.
