Giant Mentor, Wei Jia

"Sorry, I fell asleep just now."

"...Another Nightmare."

Pridhan slowly sat up, clutching his slightly aching head, and said wearily.

"Nightmares change along with your thoughts."

Yuanfang did not waste words and directly explained his discovery.

"As an outsider, I'm also forcibly drawn into them as your Nightmares unfold."

"The source of the Nightmares may lie within you."

Yuanfang offered some of his speculation, then continued.

"Keep remembering. How did you come here? Perhaps we can find some clues in it."

After saying that, Yuanfang listened while fiddling with the Milestone Spirit Candle beside him, seemingly making preparations.

"..."

Hearing Yuanfang's words, Pridhan's haggard face went blank for a moment before he sank into his memories.

"...Because I faltered in battle, the compatriots traveling with me were gravely wounded, and my people's disgust for me was laid bare..."

"Eventually, I was expelled by the tribe and thrown down from high above Aethelgard, falling into the earth..."

"..."

As expected.

Pridhan soon fell asleep again.

The Nightmare began once more, and Yuanfang was, unsurprisingly, dragged into it as well.

Several towering giants appeared before Yuanfang. Naturally, they too were Nightmare Constructs.

Yuanfang looked around. The environment created by the Nightmare was twisted and abstract compared to reality, but some of its outlines could still be made out.

"This is... the nostril of the Shaded Sun Giant Skull?"

Yuanfang thought to himself.

At that moment, a deep, booming voice came from ahead.

"Pridhan, you fled from battle. You have brought shame upon the Giant Bloodline. Your crime is unforgivable. You are hereby banished for eternity!"

The giant adjudicator briefly read out Pridhan's crimes.

Then, the giant escorting him thunderously kicked him down.

Pridhan began plummeting through the air at tremendous speed.
