He is with a few other monks heading to a meeting of their sect, Nirvana Rune, who is said to have been away for 50 years now is said to be returning, the monks all talk about her and wonder how she must look being as old as she is. Ryes doesn't concern himself with the small talk, having joined the Rune Sect eight years prior to avoid starvation on the streets. The group passes by a forsaken small pathway that heads into the Inner Coral. Ryes asks about that passageway, but his senior monk tells him that no one enters that area, it is known as the Peaks of the Living Dead and no one makes it out of there alive. The other monks tell him about the legend of a beautiful maiden that lies asleep in that area and that when she was awake she was so powerful she could make deals with the dead to safeguard her slumber. Ryes stares back at the small pathway and hears a faint whisper in the wind.
