The eastern continent of Tekiel consists largely of a region called the Woodlands, which stretches from the mountains to the ocean. The easternmost stretches of woods are known as Orin Forest, a notorious location full of virtually invincible monsters. As such, anyone who needs to travel from the Woodlands to the southern reaches of Tekiel near the capital are best going through Highway Cavern, a roadway hewn through the mountains.

Ciphers from all over Tekiel come here not only to pay respect to Grandmaster Vizen Vidal at his former guild, which sits on a plateau high above the woods, but also to visit Quentin Garnet's estate and monster archives in the sleepy town of North Orin.

Karen's journey brings her to the Woodlands to investigate Darmenia, a logging town utterly annihilated by the tatheril. Here she will meet a new ally and her quest will begin to take shape as some questions are answered and many more are put before her. She will also confront her own family as she conducts business in North Orin, the town she might hve grown up in had circumstances been different...
