News of the chaos in Alaskar spread like wildfire to the other two floating continents.
No surprise there! After 500 long years, a new Saint Trial was finally happening.
The Saint is basically the biggest religious superstar of the Holy Empire, so of course everyone was losing their minds.
Meanwhile, over on Auranel, the biggest continent by land, two ancient clans ruled almost everything.
Together, the Hayes Clan and the Valentina Clan controlled about 90% of the land.
These two families had been fighting, arguing, and glaring at each other for thousands of years over... well, everything.
Inside the grand throne room of the Hayes Clan:
"We greet the patriarch of the Hayes clan!"
A man with black hair and a slightly older face dropped to one knee. He wore elegant priestly robes.
Behind him, a line of knights in shining armor knelt too, their helmets gleaming under the light.
Many other important-looking people stood quietly around the room, watching everything.
