The Falling Wind Mountains, deep within the Danger Zone.
Cold winds howled through the gray-black mountain forests. Above the heavens, an enormous Annihilation Dharma Net pressed downward, its runes sealing space, its murderous intent oppressive, as though it might descend at any moment and annihilate every living thing.
