A lot of people from Gaster Kingdom have noticed the large Fire Tornado growing and heading towards them last night, well technically just a handful noticed it but in the next morning the word spread like a disease.
Obviously, not many people became a fan of a Big bad freaking Fire Tornado and a lot even became misinformed or best described they misunderstood the situation. Since Civilians aren't Hostile towards each other here, most assumed that this was an enemy attack that the King dismantled. They saw King Michael as the protector even though he did not do anything.
Poorly timed, the Guards who had a shift at the front part of the Kingdom, were at the other side taking a routine walk while a minor portion were on their break, sipping on some ale to beat this strong January cold. The night shift definitely is hard to tackle, the first Platoon usually takes this shift since they have what most call "Thicker Skin".
