Your trusty Seikret mount will be your loyal companion as you navigate the treacherous terrain of the Forbidden Lands. Its ability to swiftly traverse, evade monster attacks, and carry useful items as well as an alternative weapon will be invaluable to your hunts.
You’ll also encounter a vibrant cast of characters, including Alma, your handler; Gemma, the smithy; and a mysterious young boy named Nata. Each fellow member of the Forbidden Lands Expedition Team brings unique personalities and backstories to the table, deepening your immersive experience.
