The west side of the capital city stood witness to a transformation as an ordinary inn was repurposed into a field hospital. Inside its walls, the air was thick with the scent of healing herbs and the ethereal glow of Urielium magic. Wounded soldiers, their bodies bearing the scars of battle, lay on makeshift cots, their pain eased by the mystical energy that permeated the room.Palo and Maleek sought refuge within the inn's walls for the night. With a solemn expression, he approached the innkeeper, hoping for a quiet space to rest. However, luck was not on his side, as every room was occupied.

After the unforeseen lost battle, Seklas and his forces, battered and bruised, made a tactical withdrawal to the enigmatic dark continent known as Nibiru Nei. The mainland harbored a clandestine refuge for Seklas and his remaining loyalists—a secret void pillar concealed from the prying eyes of the Illuminarium defense force.

As the trio of adventurers, Maleek, Palo, and Aaslaam, embarked on their journey across the expansive Illuminarium Plains, the once vibrant and lush landscape unfolded in a panorama of muted browns and withering grass. Their mode of travel was unconventional yet efficient, as they rode atop quad-pedal animatronic beasts known as verums, their metallic joints blending seamlessly with the natural surroundings. The verums moved in synchronized harmony, their steps resonating with the fading heartbeat of the once-thriving land.The desolation of the Illuminarium Plains was a testament to the disregard shown by the Urielium Priestess, a once-devout guardian of the sacred duties bestowed upon her by the covenant with Urielius, the essence of the Urielium Pillar. It was a solemn pact, a sacred bond between the guardian and the land she swore to protect. However, somewhere along the line, the Priestess had succumbed to the allure of darker forces, forsaking her sworn responsibilities
Maleek found himself grappling with the torment of a restless sleep. The haunting specter of an antimatter explosion played out in his nightmares. This chilling scenario imprisoned him within the confines of Terres Nei.

Daylight flooded the grassy terrain of the Illuminarium Plains, casting long shadows that danced in the gentle breeze. The adventurers, weary from weeks of travel, decided to take a moment to rest and have a quick meal before continuing their arduous journey. The expansive landscape stretched out before them, a sea of green interrupted only by the occasional tuft of wildflowers. With his skilled knowledge of the wilderness, Palo took on the task of foraging for food. Aaslaam, ever vigilant, patrolled the perimeter to ensure the group's safety. Meanwhile, Maleek, the enigmatic telepath of the party, seizes the opportunity to hone his unique abilities.

After two weeks of arduous travel through the vast expanse south of the Illuminarium Plains, Maleek, Aaslaam, and Palo stood at the formidable border. This barrier, separating the known from the unknown, was not an ordinary wall but a living fortress crafted from monstrous thorns, vines, and trees that reached astonishing heights of 50 to 70 stories. This herbal bulwark stretched relentlessly for miles, creating an impenetrable boundary from the majestic Raphealus Mountains to the endless horizon of the Eastern Modjaji Sea. There was only one gateway into this mysterious realm, and that was through the hauntingly quiet city of Yum Kaxx.The trio gazed in awe at the organic tapestry that marked the border. It pulsed with a heartbeat movement, signaling the lifeblood; chlorophyll was sustaining the organic border's existence.
