The East Kingdom had always been known for calm.Stable land. Wise leaders. A place where even war left softer scars.But today? It was anything but calm.The first worm burst through the ground like a crumbling tower. Dirt flew high into the air, and the sound it made—wet, low, alive—echoed through the hills.Then another came. And another.Huge, twisting monsters of earth and sludge. Their skin looked like stone soaked in rot. No eyes. No clear shape. Just mouths and movement.The warning bells rang just once before warriors arrived.Eira stepped to the front. A Rank A water elemental, eyes sharp, boots steady in the shifting dirt. She raised both hands."Clash of the Water God… calm settlements."Her voice wasn’t loud. But her words spread. The ground stilled. Even the worms slowed for just a moment.But it didn’t last.The lead worm let out a deep growl that rattled their ribs. Then it lunged."Incoming!" someone shouted.Arin rushed forward, slamming his palm into the ground. The

The Dining room had gone quiet.No one said a word. The air felt heavy, and the candle flames barely moved. Valtor pressed his lips together, then stood slowly from his seat.“…I’m going to bed. For now. Then I’ll leave,” he muttered.He turned away before anyone could reply.Thalor raised a brow, like he was about to speak, but didn’t.The butler appeared at the doorway, as if he already knew.“Shall I lead you, Young Master?”Valtor gave a short nod. He followed the butler through the dim hallway once more. Same flickers of candlelight. Same weird silence.Back inside the room, he shut the door and leaned against it. The soft 'click,' Echoed louder than it should have.Then the panic hit.His breathing quickened. Fingers trembled. The faces, the stories, the names—all spinning in his head.He backed away from the door, turned, and slid down the wall, hands in his hair."I can't imagine I dine on the same table with The Monarchs... If Master Gap knows of this, I'm dead! I'm seriously

Valtor raised his head to stare at Thalor, whose smile sent shivers down the spine."What were you two discussing about? Mind if I do join?" He asked, the smile, still present."Well, erm, I...," Valtor said, his stammers, enough to make the First Monarch raise a brow,"Am I not worth speaking your worries to? Or do you value someone else," He looked at Velmoria, and she quickly reacted, placing the fan towards her face."Vel," He said, "What.... Exactly... You know what... I shouldn't be stepping into a conversation, asking what and who's and When's, instead..."He sat beside Valtor and Velmoria, "I'll join the conversation."The aura in the room tensed up, and Valtor knew his eyes were being read at the moment. That to say, he can't stare at Velmoria, in a signal giving manner, neither, NEITHER, can he look towards Blobby's direction.The only thing saving the Divine Blob at this moment, is the Dying-Technique, it harbored. A technique, used to shut down the life energy radiating fr

Thalor looked around, his eyes scanning each and every areas of the room."Something is not where it's meant to be... Something is... Not here... Something is... What exactly is that energy," He looked around.Velmoria who was about standing up from the ground, paused for a moment, then after which, her eyes locked with a Blue Blob hiding underneath the bed.She paused. Confused—A piece not fitting into the Puzzle.Blobby on the other hand, before getting spotted, had a thought brewing within, "I know what would happen, I know what should happen, and that is another means of redemption. If this woman, is blinded by the darkness of Chaos, she can as well be saved by the light of the gods!"If... If... If only this are the words to..."No! My thoughts are not binding themselves together. If the Third Monarch isn't a part of the ritual, or something else, that would mean, she can be saved to prevent the Finality..."Meaning, She can actually prevent the darkness of the void from escaping

The Void Loop was a realm beyond the mortal world, a place where time and space lost all meaning. It was a dimension of eternal darkness, where the laws of physics were twisted and distorted. The Void Loop was home to countless dead entities, each with their own lost unique existence and purpose.At the heart of the Void Loop lay the Void itself, a vast and formless expanse of nothingness. The Void was not just an absence of being, but a presence that exerted its own influence over the Loop. It was a gravitational force that drew in all manner of creatures, some seeking power, others seeking escape.Despite its name, the Void was not empty. It was inhabited by beings that defied conventional understanding. These entities existed outside the bounds of reality, their forms blurring and shifting like the shadows on a moonless night. They moved with a purpose, driven by motivations that were beyond human comprehension.The Void Loop was divided into different realms, each with its own dis
