Near the top of the Giant Beanstalk, a strange patch of "land" formed from island cloud floated in the sky.
An enormous golden bell stood majestically upon it, its surface gleaming. The base beneath it and the supporting pillars on either side were also made of pure gold, reflecting dazzling rays of sunlight high above the earth.
With Gan Fall enthusiastically leading the way, Lucas and Robin used their respective flight abilities to reach the site.
The Poneglyph in front of the base immediately caught Robin's eye.
