Xil puts her hand on the ground to support herself while getting up, but notices that a branch nearby has a butterfly on it. One half of the wings is the same size of her hand.
Looking around, even the piles of roots sticking out of the ground is just as tall as her.
She knew there was a forest, but didn’t expect it to be this big. She decides to follow where the sounds of water is coming from.
While riding Guang, she immediately notices the ease of breathing compared to when she was in the Great Incinerator or the Great Sorrow sector. Air flows throughout her body with every inhalation and exhaustion disappears with exhalation.
She wonders how long could she hold her breath compared to before. Exploring the ponds around the forests will definitely be easier now.
Guang also feels the effect of this air, being able to for what felt like an hour without feeling exhausted.
They eventually reach the edges of the forest. In front of them is an ocean and several mountain like islands sprinkled across them. Buildings adorned with precious metals are found on the peak of each of the islands. The light on the tip of each building reminds her of fireflies.
Sailing in between the tall island is the large ship, which is made to resemble a sea serpent. While the wings obscure most of the people onboard, she can see a few angels drinking a glistening yellow and orange liquid while sitting on the edges of the tall structure in the middle of the ship. Most of them seem to be holding hands or resting their head against their partner’s shoulders.
While angels do not need to eat they do consume everlasting food, a type of substance that is reportedly able to allow the person to experience another’s emotions or memories.
Much like the angels she has encountered before, they wear very little clothing aside from their shorts, preferring to decorate their sculpture like bodies with reflective metals or gems instead.
A lot must’ve changed. Those Wardens would probably be just as surprised as her if they came here.
