We spent five years preparing for every possible outcome that could have arisen from the Corruption.In that time, the landscape began warping much more than it had when it arrived. It was interesting to see the process that took place on a magical world from a wider perspective...and also being able to do something, unlike last time...We had managed to check on Zangriol, the frost dragon.We went to speak with him every few months to ensure his safetyAccording to Zangriol, world dragons were exceptionally powerful and made to combat such threats. They were deeply imbued with Animus energy. He assured us that unless he allowed it, he should be able to resist infection. He wasn't Kelvastiol, after all.All we could do was fight back and try to save Delvandal for now.In the five years we spent here, Vakra eventually caved under pressure from me and began preparations to build a ship.So far, the crew would consist of myself as the commander with Isabella and Cassandra holding the sam

The shadows in front of us moved and formed into a humanoid figure.There stood Aldaril Sano, the Avatar of Death. He summoned his lantern and looked back at us."Looks like I'm just in time. Although, you probably don't need my help," Aldaril said.We really don't. Any second, Isabella would have just erased them all. Still..."It's still appreciated. We're a little outnumbered, so I guess it helps..."Aldaril seemed somewhat confused."You can summon undead too, right?" He said.I had to stop for a second as the realization hit me.Oh...I forgot about that...Was it weird to have so many abilities that I simply forgot that I could do these things?I'm only human, after all..."You forgot, didn't you?" Aldaril said."I...no! I didn't forget!" I said angrily.I totally forgot "I can clearly tell that you're lying. It's written all over your face. Tell the truth. You have to set a good example for others," Aldaril said."I kill people all the time. No one says a word about that. But I

"Umm...sister? No. This is my apprentice. I found her in a lab-""YOU UNDEAD BASTARD!!! YOU TURNED HER INTO A CHILD!!! YOU MONSTER!!!" Akari screamed. Before any of us could speak up, Nasuria narrowed her eyes at Akari and stepped forward."Stop your yelling! You're giving me a headache, Akari! And how dare you insult my caretaker!" She hissed."Hold on... Nasuria! My big sister! What has he done to you!? Is this some kind of evil charm magic!?" Akari said."No, you idiot! I was experimented on and had my entire being implanted into a child weapon! This man saved me from a fate worse than death! I will not stand for you insulting him!" Nasuria said."Wh-what!? This filthy undead saved you...? And why are you being so cruel, sister? Don't you love me?" Akari said.Nasuria sighed heavily and turned to Aldaril.She bowed her head deeply."I apologize for her insolence. My little sister has always been a problem for me. Please bear with it for a moment, Master Aldaril," she said."Yeah..

We touched down just outside the contamination zone near Elysium and I could already see an army of Corrupted behemoths, serpents, deathwings, and even a few titans."He really needs to get new ideas for soldiers. I'm tired of fighting the same things over and over," I said."I agree...but these things aren't even a threat, anymore," Isabella said.More of the creatures began manifesting as the two of us stepped forward.Aldaril, Vakra, and the Enforcers were on their way here. For now, we planned to utterly annihilate these horrors, ourselves."Remember when we stood on the walls outside of the dwarven city, Isabella?" I said."Of course! You were so romantic that day. Just thinking about it makes me blush!" Isabella said with a smile."Yeah...and I wish I still could be. But I was terrified that day. I truly believed we would die," I said."I felt the same. But now, they look like little more than ants, don't they?" "They do. Calling them ants would be generous, though," I said.I

Two days later, we had fully gathered our forces and were currently on our way to Ripper Isle.Operation Armageddon.Vakra organized the military for such a thing as a last resort to defend Delvandal from an existential threat.Currently, there were one hundred aircraft carriers, three hundred destroyer-class battleships, about two hundred fighter aircraft, twenty-four desteoyer-class airships, and one transport airship. The Astrum.The force was slowly moving towards Ripper Isle, but since that would take over a month, Vakra had a different idea.Using my magic, combined with the raw power from the Heart of the World, and finally, Vakra's abilities and intellect, we could transport the entire military force close enough to get a preemptive strike on Ripper Isle.That way, Cain wouldn't have any clue what was happening until it was too late.Vakra was actually pretty damn smart.To test if it would be effective, we would transport the Astrum to Rastair's current coordinates. Vakra was
