In the mist-shrouded Elder's Recess, Kushala Daora patrols, shielded by swirling gales. Suddenly, a thunderous roar splits the sky. An ominous black silhouette descends, crashing into the earth with violent force. Black spikes scatter like shrapnel, forcing the wind dragon to roar in alarm. The dust clears to reveal Nergigante, the Elder Eater. Kushala flees in terror. Nergigante lifts its head, letting out a defiant roar to the heavens, marking you's arrival.
