Beyond their eyes stood up an unnatural building irl Sildria for information about the ruins
But similarly to Lienhardt, he was surprised when he saw theacy from the Ancient Super E else I've seen in the continent…)
While hiding, they observed the ruins
As if the sea of trees had been carved out, the ruins stood in the hollowed part
According to the story froo, these ruins suddenly had appeared in the sea of trees

It didn't look like a war-time wall, but more on the level of a security barrier
(That is not stone and cement Just what kind of material are the walls made of…?)
The material of which the ruins were built of couldn't be discerned by eye at their current distance
And also, their styles were one unseen in the current cities and towns in the continent
Furthere, it was a material that he had never seen before
