*A year has passed since the incident and before the first war*
The remnants of the white night have disappeared, the area where the white night happened is now full of life and has little to no trace of the past. people from other parts of the world came and build their houses there as the area is full of life, and has plenty to offer for humans to live. and has rumors that if anyone could find a very powerful artifact that could grant them any wish and could make anything from nothing.
The place attracted so much attention that gathered so many people into the area creating a little community. people there look into caves, hoping to find the artifact they were looking for.
People have expeditions every day as everyone can't go exploring the area as a large crowd attracts monsters around. the community is not safe, but safe enough as the community is built under a very giant cave that has its own ecosystem.
One day a wide area expedition was held as a contest, the contest will test them if they can stay longer, survive longer outside the cave for a month, the last team that can come back alive after a month will receive the reward.
The day came when the day of the expedition will begin. people have grouped themselves into three and have only enough supply for few days. a young group of teenagers has joined the expedition. as this will be their debut to become an inquisitor.
Inquisitor: A title given to a successful explorer
*The expedition began*
Groups started to go out from the gates of the cave and slowly walking into the foggy forest. as they slowly fade into the vastness of the forest along with the giant mountains, a few minutes later, screams were heard from afar. other groups started to worry and sprinted their way deep into the forest.
The teenagers' group started looking for a place to hide as loud large thuds of footsteps can be heard in a distance. they found a cave that is safe enough to stay in the meantime. Dea, Geo, and Clint set up an area seal magic to fend of monster from chasing them from where they are hiding.

As they scurry inside the cave, moments later they heard a large monster patrolling around the area looking around for something. as the monster slowly moving away from the cave from where they are hiding and as nightfall came, they ready themselves for the night. as they settle down Dea heard a voice from inside the cave but Dea is confused as the cave does not lead to any whereas it was just like a hole on a mountainside. Dea just brushed it as he is maybe just hearing things because of what happened earlier.
As night falls deep, Dea and everyone are now fast asleep. moments later Dea suddenly woke up as he heard the voice again calling for help. Dea was so scared and tried to wake up Clint, and Geo but Clint and Geo is a very heavy sleeper. so trying to wake them up is not an option. then suddenly Dea mustered the courage to talk back to the voice that was calling for her.
Dialogue:
Dea: Hello!? Who are you?
Dea: I'm very very scared now, can you show yourself.
Voice: Help me.
Dea: Who are you? Where are you?
Voice: Follow my voice.
Dea: I'm scared!
Voice: You just need to trust me.
*Dea then proceeded to follow the voice*
Dea: Are you inside the cave?
Voice: Yes! just walkthrough.
Dea: You mean the walls?
Voice: Yes!
*Dea walking through the wall*
Dea was surprised as he saw a man wrapped in vines and was kneeling on the ground. Dea then tried helping the man by trying to undo the vines that bind him. as he is casting a spell to try and undo the spell, the vines suddenly just withered. Dea was surprised as he had done nothing yet but still proceeded to help the man. he then slowly brought the man to camp.
