In the day, I had risen alongside my fellow gods for one last mission to undertake before our fated clash against AGLA. We gathered in the Command Center and held conference, debriefing ourselves on our next objective.
The Mountains of Yore themselves.
This would be our hardest struggle yet to undertake. We had to set out to gain the help of one Great Lambkin, commander of all Siegesian Regiments. But as well, needed to seek the ear of Eikn, the Great Nannie. The Mother Goddess of all Siegesia herself. It was only with her approval could we requisition Ludwyhn's assistance in our efforts. And to gain it would mean impressing her. We came to accept the reality that Woldoria's pantheon would be ready to fire trial after tribulation after challenge at us, for none ascended the Mountain of Yore without overcoming the hardships that the divine family could invent.
Once we were briefed on where to go, me and my companions set out with Hale's blessing.
[HALE] "And don't forget to be back by nightfall. We're celebrating Kurt's birthday in the canteen by then! You won't want to miss the cake I've had prepared!"
And so, we departed base, heading towards the base of the Mountains of Yore.
[ESKART] "One can only start the climb at the base."
[SHENNU] "We cannot simply fly to the top?"
[JENK] "It's not how it works. The Realm of Woldor can only be accessed by one able to make the climb. If you try to cheat your way around it, you'll find nothing. His realm is beyond Hainei, and though it lies above the clouds of the Mountains of Yore's peak, his Hall is still far away from the world below. It is an entire other universe in itself, made by his hand, reserved only for him and his kin, and those strong enough to forge their path into the world of mythology he seeks."
[SHENNU] "Deities like him do adore these tests of worth..."
We had no choice but to start at the base of the first of the mountains, the smallest. It lead all the way up to the tallest peak in all of Hainei, even greater than the Dao range the Trinity sat upon. Eclipsed only by the Tower of Gods and Heaven....
