One Week Before The Colosseum Incident.
Far in the east of the city of Ilma in the 'Grand Swamp' near the foot of the 'Bela Mountain Range,' a massive troop convoy was travelling towards the direction of the city of Ilma.
Although there was a small narrow road that went through the swamp, it was not properly maintained often and was heavily eroded by water from the swamp all around.
*Splash!* *Splash!*
Just by walking forward, the troops and the horses made big splashes in the water.
Even on the road, the water was as high as an adult person's waist, and nobody knew how deep the deepest parts of this massive swamp were.
The ground below was muddy and slippery; many soldiers nearly even slipped but were caught by their comrades nearby and thus managed to survive.
After all, they were all travelling while wearing heavy armor; one slip can cause them to go straight down to the bottom, and getting up in heavy armor on this slippery surface would be a nightmare!
