The night before, they had heard of the Sapphire's Exchange in the imperial city of Leon Empire, a place said to gather countless treasures sought after by Spirit Warriors.
They had originally planned to visit it then, but Ragnor's sudden appearance had wasted too much time, forcing them to postpone the trip.
