The Ambushed Pilgrim

The frequency of attacks on pilgrims have increased recently. We didn't even go near the ancient civilization. But there's been erratic movement. If possible, we need to prevent any war from breaking out. The past may repeat itself... Someone survived the attack that was made on a nearby sanctum. All I know is that person was attacked by a strange creature. I don't know if it was related to the Aakman though. Please find out more about the attack.

This is the closest pilgrim's sanctum from here. You can get there by heading northeast.

Welcome to our pilgrim's sanctum. This is a place where you can find peace through meditation. Did you come from Pilgrim's Haven? That's usually where the pilgrimage ends... I see that you're not a pilgrim seeing how you did not come from the Pilgrim's Sanctum: Fast. It must've been hard making your way here. What brings you here?
