In the Land of Sins, in the Bloody Plateau Area…
This place was different from the 'Thousand Lakes Area' where the Village of Peace was situated.
The Thousand Lakes Area had once been bombarded by countless powerful earth penetrators, which left enormous craters in the cities and the wilderness. After hundreds of years, the craters had turned into lakes. That was how the place got its name.
The Bloody Plateau did not suffer the scourge of so many earth penetrators, but it was also affected by a catastrophe that destroyed everything. There was some sort of fungus that swallowed all the creatures and could trigger the extreme mutations in the genes of creatures.
As far as the eyes could see, the entire Bloody Plateau was covered in a thick carpet of fungi. Hazy red mist was floating in midair, too, mixed with a greasy stench. One could not help but feel that they were placed in the ocean of blood.
That was how the Bloody Plateau Area got its name.
