Bab 182: Trial Tower

"Of course, it is a tower created by the ancestor of the Divine Wood Bears that tests one's abilities. Many people have attempted it and the records of how high they have gone are beside the tower. Why do you ask?" Lucius asked in return.

"Well, Your Majesty, there is something that is known only to the Patriarch and his family in each successive generation of the Divine Wood Bears. Our ancestor, when he created the tower, left some gifts at the top of the tower. He told us that whoever is able to reach the top could take those gifts and would be able to rise to the position of someone unrivalled within this realm and perhaps even the higher realm. Unfortunately for us, our talents were never good enough to reach the top and to this date, no one has so I was wondering if you wanted to attempt the tower and see if you can do what no one has been able to for the past aeons." Jacob explained enlightening Lucius.
