News From Elina - Part 2

"An ancient monster? What do you mean?" Zelda frowned in confusion.

Elina lowered her gaze and explained, "You might not know this, but the Dwarven race lives in Mount Durnhak. While we were there, we discovered that the Dwarf King had died and been replaced by something—or someone—pretending to be him. After that..."

Elina went on to tell us everything that had happened at Mount Durnhak, including Leon's journey to the mountain's crater to investigate the Dwarf King's death and the ancient monster mentioned in Dwarven legends.

Zelda, Malverna, and Astra listened intently. But the more they heard, the more shocked they became—especially Astra and Malverna.

"Astra, Mount Durnhak... isn't that where the Nine-Headed Hydra was slain by Amon?" Malverna turned to her with a grave expression.

"You're right! I just remembered—that's where the Hydra died!" Astra's eyes widened in horror.
