The rays of Dezolis' moon hit the Aero-Prism, sending a beam of light across the icy wastes, bathing the white plateau in a ghostly blue. Suddenly, a section of snow and sky both began to ripple, as if a mirage had appeared. The light grew brighter, rippling more intensely, until the previously unspoiled landscape morphed into a new image: a tall, spindly tower of white stone, dotted in small, pale-leaved trees. Shapes could be seen flitting around it, shapes with glowing eyes and too many teeth. Somehow, the enemy had already found the towers where the Nei Items were stored.
