The grand capital trembled with anticipation as Kael's subordinates, Zara, Garret, and Aria, had revealed themselves to the world. The people marveled at their power and pledged their allegiance, their hearts ignited by the promise of a brighter future. The Immortal Sovereign's influence grew, casting a profound shadow across the land.
In the wake of this revelation, the delicate balance of power shifted. Whispers echoed through the halls of kings and queens, lords and ladies, as news of Kael and his loyal subordinates reached the ears of those who hungered for control. Ambition burned within the hearts of individuals who sought to seize the Immortal Sovereign's power for themselves.
Unbeknownst to Kael and his subordinates, danger lurked in the shadows, manifesting as a gathering storm that threatened to unleash chaos upon the Four Kingdoms.

Deep within the darkest recesses of the realm, an alliance formed—an unholy union of nefarious minds who sought to challenge Kael's authority. Led by a cunning and enigmatic figure known only as Lord Malachi, this malevolent coalition aimed to dethrone the Immortal Sovereign and claim his powers for their own wicked purposes.
Lord Malachi, a master manipulator and sorcerer of formidable skill, had long coveted Kael's immortality and wished to bend it to his twisted will. He assembled a league of powerful individuals, each harboring their own dark ambitions and seeking to exploit the chaos that would ensue once the Immortal Sovereign's reign was toppled.
As the alliance grew in strength and influence, whispers of their existence reached the ears of Rylan, the diplomatic mastermind of Solara. Through his intricate web of contacts and informants, Rylan unearthed fragments of a malevolent plot, pieces of a puzzle that threatened to shatter the stability he had worked so tirelessly to establish.
Rylan, burdened by the weight of this knowledge, knew he could not face this threat alone. With careful discretion, he sought the counsel of his fellow subordinates, Zara and Garret. They convened in a hidden chamber, far removed from prying eyes, to discuss the impending storm.

The subordinates agreed, realizing the significance of their enemy's shadows creeping ever closer. United in purpose, they set forth to infiltrate the ranks of Lord Malachi's alliance, seeking to unravel the malevolent web that threatened the Four Kingdoms.

Weeks turned into months as Zara, Garret, and Rylan immersed themselves in the darkness, navigating the treacherous labyrinth of deceit and manipulation. Undercover and masked by false identities, they worked tirelessly to gain the trust of Lord Malachi's allies, their true allegiance hidden beneath layers of subterfuge.
In the Kingdom of Virelia, Zara adopted the guise of a disillusioned mercenary seeking power and purpose. She mingled with the underworld, ingratiating herself with the outcasts and renegades who whispered secrets in the dimly lit taverns. Gradually, she unearthed fragments of information that pointed to Lord Malachi's true ambitions—a malevolent
