In the midst of the black and white flames covering the northern sky, the massive silhouette of Calamitas soared upward.
Having fully emerged from the Labyrinth, its form was so enormous that it could be clearly seen from anywhere in the city.
It looked like a human at times, or a beast at others.
Perhaps it simply looked like a flickering shadow without any real meaning.
Black flames blanketed the sky.
...And just like that, the world met its end.
'Wake up! Anne!'
'Ugh.... *Cough..Wheeze.'
It felt as if she had been trapped in a long nightmare.
Anne, who had even forgotten to breathe, finally exhaled sharply and pushed herself up.
Her friends, who also looked far from okay, were shaking her awake.
'What on earth is happening?'
'Something... something seems to have come out of the Labyrinth!'
'An invasion...? But the alarm didn't even sound?'
'Still, look over there, toward the Labyrinth....'
