"Still nothing…."
Soliette frowned, staring out at the vast, frozen wasteland.
Thump! Thump! Thump!
The steady sound of hooves againsy snow echoed through the air. She turned to see a group of mages in robes approaching on horseback.
"Archmage!"
They dismounted swiftly and saluted. Soliette slammed her staff into the ground and pointed toward the icy expanse.
"Mark this territory," she ordered. "Even if our search hasn't been fruitful, the scrolls led us here for a reason."
"Understood, Archmage!"
The mages quickly set to work. They struck their staffs against the ground and began chanting. A massive, glowing magic circuits spread across the wasteland, marking the area with circuits
A few moments later, they finished and returned to Soliette.
"I believe we're close, Archmage. The mana in this area keeps fluctuating," one of them reported.
"Nonsense," Soliette said. "It's just the usual signs of Zen's comet approaching our stellar system."
"Then…. does that mean?"
"Yes," Soliette nodded.

Yet, the fluctuating mana in the area was something intriguing.
It was highly likely one of the uncharted locations where mana naturally fluctuated during the comet's passing.

Still, Soliette frowned. This wasn't the result she wanted. Ever since becoming the Archmage, she had felt an immense pressure unlike anything before.
No, perhaps, it was a burden that no Archmage in history had experienced—except the previous Archmage, who had passed away fifteen years ago.
The first Archmage, Zen—the progenitor of magic—had once faced a catastrophe beyond imagination.
A mythical creature known as the Black Dragon.
The Black Dragon had mysteriously appeared over 1000 years ago, bringing nothing but destruction that altered the course of the entire world.
The Great Epoch.
A catastrophic event that erased centuries of history, nearly wiping civilizations from existence.
The survivors passed down their stories and helped to rebuild parts of the world's lost history. Their accounts allowed the current generation to piece together fragments of the past.
However, fully restoring the complete and accurate history from before the Great Epoch remained impossible.
From the recounted tales, Archmage Zen had done everything in his power to mitigate the disaster, but he couldn't defeat the Black Dragon.
