A riot ensued in the blink of an eye.
Ivory witnessed how people were running frantically from all directions. Many mothers were screaming, and children were crying loudly. She also heard young soldiers starting to arrive with vests and guns. They shouted instructions to all residents to remain calm and not panic.
However, still, the instructions seemed not to be heard by them.
People were still screaming hysterically as if the apocalypse had arrived. Many are calling out their children's names. Not a few also run while carrying their pet dog. As far as Ivory could see, not a single civilian had calmed down when asked to gather in Vein.
Ivory gasped in surprise when she saw Cakara grab her hand. The man grabbed Ivory and ran through the crowd. Ivory was still half-conscious and half-dazed when she realized where she was initially going.
"Caka, wait. I have to go away for a bit."
