Far away from the routes taken by Erend, Eccar, Aesa, and Sylven, the fifth expedition also continued advancing through another corrupted region of the world.
The landscape around them looked devastated beyond recognition now. Great cracks split the earth apart and corruption spread through the ground like diseased veins. Entire hills had collapsed into vast sinkholes. Black and red mist drifted across the terrain and occasionally twisted into strange shapes before dissolving again.
Despite the dangers surrounding them, the expedition continued moving forward.
At the front of the formation, Erend's clone led the advance.
To everyone else, he looked no different from the original Dragonborn. The same appearance, same power, same determination.
More importantly, he shared the original Erend's consciousness.
