At this moment, a player is strolling through the Giant Beast Basin south of the Land of Chasing the Sun.
The entire region was transformed by an ancient giant beast, its bones long petrified, yet still maintaining the stance it held in life.
The spine juts towards the sky like a fractured mountain ridge, while the ribs have become steep arches, with its skull buried deep in the earth, leaving only two hollow eye sockets staring at the Cang Qiong.
As the setting sun sinks in the west, the afterglow penetrates the ribs of the beast, casting countless narrow shadows on the ground.
The blue-gray bone surfaces are covered with dark red patterns reminiscent of rust, like dried blood stains, with certain joints now entwined with resilient vines.
The plants, insects, monsters here... all rely on this colossal remnant to propagate and thrive.
Moss in the bone seams absorbs trace nutrients from the petrified marrow, growing into an emerald velvet carpet.
