And opposite this powerful and peculiar broken sword, a painting hung in the corridor.
The pigments on it seemed to have become mottled and faded over time.
But there was one figure that remained deeply black and sinister.
The painting depicted the most intense moment of an epic battle.
Humans and elves, clad in helmets and armor, shouted hoarsely, giving their all under the dark clouds to face a towering figure.
This figure was clad in menacing black armor, raising a single-handed page hammer.
Just at the moment of seeing this painting, a mournful battle cry seemed to echo in the mind, like an auditory hallucination.
Accompanied by the clashing of metal and the sound of raging battle flames...
However, these sounds, which should have been harsh and unsettling, were not noticed by Lann at the moment.
Because, for some reason, Lann saw that the black figure, on the hand that held up the single-handed page hammer, had a ring on its index finger.
