The golden light pierced through Rode's eyelids. When he opened his eyes, he thought he was at the Sacred Fire altar.

But he quickly realized that this wasn't the light of the Sacred Fire, but sunlight.

Rode lifted his head and saw a vast clear sky, with white clouds leisurely floating along with the gentle breeze, and the radiant sun hanging obliquely in the sky, bright and serene.

The sound of birds chirping lightly reached his ears, and the fragrance of flowers filled his nostrils. This was a verdant mountain wilderness, filled with a natural aura he had never experienced before.
