After days of traveling and following a very old treasure map, Vespera finally reached the hidden shoreline, shrouded in a thick, eerie mist. As she disembarked from her boat, she marveled at the small huts and structures that suggested people must be living there. The wildlife was unlike anything she had ever seen, and the foliage glimmered and twinkled with each movement, casting a surreal glow over the landscape.
Exploring the village, she felt a sense of wonder at this hidden world. She wandered through the narrow paths, taking in the sights and sounds of this mysterious place. Then, her heart raced with excitement as she spotted it—the Azure Abyss. It was exactly as the stories her papa had told her described. The vast, deep blue expanse of water seemed to pulse with an ancient, almost otherworldly energy. As Vespera approached, a sense of both awe and trepidation washed over her. She had no idea what might be lurking within the depths.
Suddenly, the water erupted. A giant blue
sea serpent surfaced, its eyes locked onto
Vespera, and it looked as if it was about to
attack. Panic surged through her veins, but before she could react, an elven figure with long white hair and a blue cloak
appeared from the mist. With a swift motion, he hurled a large block of cheese at the serpent. The monster's demeanor changed instantly—it
happily devoured the cheese, cast a curious glance at
Vespera and the mysterious elf, and then disappeared back into the abyss.
The elven figure approached Vespera with a calm, knowing smile. "That," he said, "is the Abyssal Monster, guardian of the Azure Abyss. Its magic is what keeps this shoreline hidden and protected. It is believed that the deities placed it here to safeguard something hidden at the bottom of the abyss, long ago during the Great War. The natives respect the Abyssal Monster and feed it to keep its magic strong. Sometimes, it rewards them with sP and other treasures. Next time you encounter it, try feeding it."
Vespera, still in awe, asked for the elf's name as he began to walk away. He paused, looking back at her with a twinkle in his eye. "I have many names, but most will only know me as the Seeker of Knowledge," he said before fading into the misty shoreline.
Elated by her discovery, Vespera decided to take some time to enjoy the beautiful shoreline she had found. She eagerly awaited the next opportunity to feed the Abyssal Monster, keen to uncover the secrets and treasures it might reveal to her and any other brave adventurers.
With her heart full of excitement and wonder, Vespera looked forward to the next chapter of her adventure, knowing that the Azure Abyss held many more mysteries waiting to be uncovered.
