Eccar gestured to the rough, red land beside him, a small, almost comforting smile playing on his lips despite the situation.
Erend took a deep breath and joined him, sitting down on the unforgiving ground. The chaotic landscape of the Chaos Realm stretched out before them.
"Tell me, Erend," Eccar began, his voice steady and calm, "what has happened in that side?"
Erend took a moment to collect his thoughts, the weight of his responsibilities heavy on his shoulders.
"The Great Calamity has begun, Eccar. The sky is blood-red, the air is thick with dread, and a black mist covers everything. We thought we had more time, but it's here now."
Eccar listened intently, his eyes never leaving Erend's face. "I know that there will be anomalies, right? Have they grown worse?"
Erend nodded, his expression grim. "Yes. The land itself feels like it's dying. Everything is withering away. We are gathering all our forces, but... I'm worried it's not enough."
