Chapter 16

Chapter 16: Snow Lands of Weindra!!

Summary
The chapter begins and our heroes walking through the desert, and strangely enough Red is with them!!

"Are you sure about this?" Rika asks, the two a little ahead of Red.

"Yeah, behind his tough demeanour, lies a man with a white heart!" Kitaro says.

The chapter then transitions from the desert into... Snow land?!

Rika is bewildered by this, but Kitaro (and Red somewhat) explains that the border between LW and DW is a large area of snow that cuts across the centre area of the whole continent. It is one of the biggest wonders as it seems to cut through plains in marvellous ways, in this example in a single step the weather turns from the warmness of the desert to the coldness of the snow... A legend states that it is caused by the strongest beast that ever lived, which upon its death created this conundrum somehow... Rika dismisses this and our heroes walk into the snow land. The border is split into many districts, this one is called Weindra...

As they venture on, they are attacked by a mass of giant polar bear like creatures, Red puts up his hand and decides he'll deal with it. Afterwards, Kitaro decides that they'll call it a day and make camp.

As they all are around a fire, they have a little meal while having a conversation. Red learns of Rika being Kitaro's student, which leads to a comical moment in which Red starts calling her Greenhorn, adding a miss when she gets angry to annoy her even more. The scene ends with Kitaro in a fit of laughter as the two continue to argue, Rika trying to get Red to stop calling her Greenhorn...

The chapter then turns to them packing their stuff and Kitaro stating that they aren't too far from Wall White, "soon, we'll be in the Dark World... There, we will land in a place that can seem on a whole other level at some points... Are you ready... (Rika nods)... Greenhorn!"

"NOT YOU TOO!!!!" Rika shouts to the enjoyment of Kitaro and Red.
