Velvet (Covet.Conquer.Combat)

Mount Beruang is located at the border of Velvet, as if separating Velvet and Monad with intension. By this time of the year, it was already covered with a sheer thick layer of snow from the top to the waist from the heavy winter snow. As they were approaching the plateau of the mountain, they could feel the cold breeze hitting harder on their faces. Jade was hoping the wind would be more merciful to them. The journey took about half an hour drive across the expansive grassland from Seven. It was a relieving smooth driving, free from any pock-marked surface. 


“Phew… we’re here. I’m parched,” Aisha said when they finally stopped for a drink. 


“It’s colder than I expected. Luckily our Elies are able to warm us up,” Lukah said while shuddering lightly. 


 “The search team had cleared the debris, but there must be some scorch marks or something,” Jade said, studying the rocky surface to find a less-steep path to get to the summit.
