On the shores of Pokterr, hundreds of warships laden with men and women of different ethnicities and walks of life stood to fight for their faith and their beliefs. Most of them hadn't even Sparked or Awakened, being just slightly trained humans or other species who knew how to fight.
They all disembarked on the shores of Pokterr, marching in arranged formations, led by their officers as they sought to penetrate this continent and conquer it for themselves!
The first thing this new army noticed was that the entire landscape of the continent was covered in a strange metal that seemed to glow with energy.
Just stepping on it increased the power of some of them, while others reported suffering a power loss. The non-Sparked/Awakened fighters felt no difference, merely a slight buzz.
Whatever the case, this fact caused the various armies to pause as they camped near the edge of the continent to investigate what the hell this was.
