"do you know anything about the demons?" iveth asked.
"demons? yeah, i've heard of them," broken replied, deliberately vague, despite having fought and defeated two named demons himself.
iveth let out a frustrated click of her tongue. "we have reason to believe there's been movements near the capital. possibly some portals used to summon demons."
this was exactly what maylock, elincia, and the others had warned about: the threat of the demon's assault on the capital.
"you're saying there might be an attack soon?" iveth gave a slow nod. "we can't afford to let lady aerin return to the capital. it would be too dangerous for her."
"do you know where these portals are? or when the attack might happen?"
iveth shook her head. "not exactly. there could be more than just a few portals. we've destroyed the ones we've found so far, but i don't know how many more are out there," she admitted.
the recent event experience point boost organized by golden age company across multiple capitals in various regions has raised suspicions that something significant is on the horizon.
from the way the developers have handled it, it's clear that this is tied to the main storyline of immortal legacy. it's a stark contrast to the chaotic attack on deadbay city some time ago—a situation that had caused enough panic to prompt the developers to take unusual measures, including temporarily allowing players who had run out of playtime to log back in.
meanwhile, broken relayed his conversation with iveth to the guild chat.
"who's currently in the capital?" he asked urgently.
"almost everyone except melliandra and kingsley is at the capital, broken," elincia replied. "only ivana and i are still in deadbay city."
broken and iveth's conversation deepened.
"why weren't we told about this from the start?" broken pressed.
iveth sighed. "lady aerin refused to listen when we tried to explain. we had no other option but to take drastic measures. now that she's back in the capital, it seems we'll have to forcibly take her again."
"but how do you intend to pull that off when she's in the palace itself? the guards won't just stand by and let you take her."
colossal monster with jagged claws and fangs sharp enough to rend steel charged forward, shaking the ground with each step. above, winged abominations with leathery appendages and talons like serrated blades swooped through the skies, their shrieks cutting through the din of chaos.
the torrent of twisted horrors was unending—some grotesquely disfigured, others so alien in form they seemed plucked from a realm of pure madness. the once-brilliant sky dimmed under the weight of gathering storm clouds, a tempest of shadow brewing and darkening with each new portal that tore through the air.
"what's happening here? is this some kind of emergency event?"
"it's a monster invasion! this is insane!" another yelled. "we need to warn everyone—this looks like it's turning into an all-out war!"
trumpets rang out across the city. knights and soldiers raced into defensive formations, sprinting toward the fortress walls. but the sheer magnitude of the invasion was beyond anything the kingdom had ever anticipated. within minutes, live broadcasts from dissidia's capital spread across the internet.this attack made the assault on deadbay city seem trivial by comparison—this time, the very heart of the kingdom was under siege, and no one wanted to miss the unfolding spectacle.
"why does this stuff always happen in dissidia?" one player grumbled. "i'm seriously thinking about switching kingdoms."
"are you kidding me?" another shot back. "this is the capital! there's bound to be even more top-tier players here. the fights are going to be incredible!"
"do you think this attack is part of some plan to overthrow the kingdom? the rumors have been saying something like that."
"could this be the work of the champions of gluttony?" someone else asked.
the city trembled under the weight of the invasion, but the anticipation of battle coursed through the crowd like a current. for better or worse, the players were ready to fight.
[elincia]: "can you all hold out until at least ivana, broken, and i arrive?"
[goldrich]: "khi khi khi, i'm sure this will be an entertaining distraction for this retired old man."
[skywarden]: "keh! i'll obliterate them with my shield!"
[livelywood]: "oh yeah... finally, i'm not missing out on a big war."
[trison]: "oh, another war? ha hah... i'm thrilled."
[starfall]: "everything's good. i've already asked my manager to adjust my schedule."
[kingsley]: "melliandra and i are already on our way. broken is following behind us."
