In the World of Suffering, high above the sky and beneath the river of stars, at what seemed to be the intersection of light and dark where the Starry Sky and the high heavens merged, a stone statue floated in silence.
The statue was seated cross-legged, its back to the Starry Sky and its face toward the earth.
It had the form of a young girl.
No one knew what it was carved from. It was as large as a mountain and seemed to be made of jade, yet also of withered wood, and even of clay. Its entire body was a dim, gray color.
A dark red light glowed at the center of its brow, pulsing as it brightened and dimmed.
'New Player, so arrogant you don't know your place. You actually dare to look down on me! Heh heh heh… I'm quite petty, you know. You're in big trouble now… This world can be cleared, but no one can clear it by destroying me. I told you I would hunt you down, heh heh heh…'
The stone statue remained motionless, but a bizarre voice emanated from the center of its brow.
