章 671: Chapter 671: The Elder’s Past

Elder Satara then explained that she chose to stay in the human realm despite receiving the offer to head to a safer place reserved only for the long-lived races.

Satara lost all her family and the people she knew during the Great War and thus decided to mourn for them on this mountain until she died.

She loathed humans for the longest time and prevented them from ever approaching this mountain which was her place of mourning.

However, after three thousand years, someone was able to enter the forest to acquire medicinal plants for his ailing younger sibling. 

It was a man named Lobelius. Lobelius' parents had settled on the plains near the mountain and farmed the area without trying to enter the forest due to all the rumors about it being a cursed mountain since everyone who tried to enter it had died or never got out.

One day, Lobelius' young sibling who was just a toddler got ill and the cure could only be found in the mountain.
