Darian and Niara stepped out of the spatial channel, then found themselves in the middle of darkness. The first thing they noticed was a strong smell of blood and death.

Furious roars echoed above their heads. Only then did the two realize they were in a massive battlefield, at the bottom of a deep abyss.
They immediately floated upward and soon found themselves under a dark night sky, with no source of light at all.
Corpses were scattered all over the ground. A bit farther away, they saw countless races wearing armor that radiated an intense white glow.
The two landed on the ground and narrowed their eyes coldly. They had felt something identical before. Those white armors gave off the same power that Mannaz and his enemies had in the final battle of that other universe. In other words, those were soldiers of the former missionary, Byon.
