In another location, the Vampyre Ruler Vladivostok had a frustrated expression as his communications with Elena, the one being who had access to the Crixus that shone brightly in the hands of the Celestials-was cut off.
He had sent numerous messages towards her and the forces in the Underworld that he controlled, only to get no replies as time passed!
His troubles seemed to only be compounding, as he knew his position in the Alliance would waver if he could not even maintain a handle on such a powerful spy that they placed into the ranks of Celestials.
He turned towards one of his subordinates as he asked irritatingly.
"The force towards the Verittas Fortress has set off?"
"Yes, Master. The Royal Vampyre Rokku and his forces should arrive within a few hours."
