Under the guidance of the information sent back by Asharena, the Empire Expedition Fleet headed by the Winter began to move towards the sea area shrouded in clouds and fog. As the sunlight grew stronger and the residual effects of Chaotic Turbulence gradually dissipated, the clouds and mist covering the sea surface gradually cleared over time. Between the thinning fog, the "pillar" that seemed to connect the heavens and earth gradually emerged.
Byron stood on an observation platform at the bow of the Winter, gazing at the endless expanse of the ocean in the distance. In his view, the "tower," which had pierced through the clouds and vanished at the edge of the sky, appeared as an increasingly clear dark silhouette. As the sea mist dissipated, it loomed like a mythical pillar reaching the heavens, descending upon mortals with an awe-inspiring majesty.
