The small Schlei Domain became a microcosm of the entire world.
Rebellion broke out uncontrollably.
The "kind-hearted commoners" who were still hanging on yesterday had always harbored hopes, expecting the dawn to come eventually.
Noble lords and scholar lords all said that the long night would eventually pass, just after the longest "six months"... but now they've found that they were deceived!
"It's over, all lies, all lies!"
"I mean, how did those landlords and nobles manage to run off to the Holy City, even selling their ancestral properties cheaply? They had inside information, and they were looking for their own way out."
"We've been left behind, and we'll be destroyed along with this world."
"Why hasn't the sky brightened yet? Am I not devout enough? I've sacrificed my children and wife to you, please grant us the dawn again!"
"... It's too unfair, too unfair, we have the right to survive too. At least, tell us what happened."
