The new term had just begun, and it happened to be Crown Prince Year. The plots being released were all of a relatively high grade, such as the Iron Fir Forest the other party had mentioned. It was a mysterious place created by the civilization of the ancient Developers, and one of the important origins of the modern mechanical planets.
