Mysterious Forest

"Here is fine, Spot. Let's stop here."

We were on our flight to Arturo, when I asked Spot to stop and descend right before we entered a dark forest. Although it's still bright, the forest is too dark for average people. Not me though.

"Why are we stopping here?" Victoria asked right in front of the forest.

"I heard from old man that this is one of the most mysterious location in the entire continent. Even though it's sunny, the forest is too dark. Not many people have explored this forest. Although it seems as if cutting through the forest to go from Varadis to Arturo is faster, people would choose to travel through sea route since it's safer that way. If I have to guess, this place is perfect for hiding spot. Maybe while we're on travel, we could find the cult's base or former base in this forest." I explained.

That's also why I asked Spot to fly this way instead of crossing the sea.
