After the rumbling and mysterious roaring noises subsided, the civilians came to a standstill, and the soldiers seized control of the crowd. An unknown phenomenon caused damaged and destroyed buildings all throughout their nation. Sander hurried toward the castle, worried about the King and Prince.
AT THE CASTLE OF CASUS NATION
Sander: "King, Eury! You two alright?" he said in a worried voice.
King Dilan: "Yes, we're okay. What is happening?" he said in a calm voice.
Sander: "King, Eury. Please wear your armor and wield your sword, just to prepare for any situation that might happen." he said in a calm voice.
King Dilan: "Did you hear that, Eury. Wear your armor and be ready." he said in a low tone.
Eury: "I will father." he said calmly.
They emerged from the castle to investigate the source of the chaos, dressed in war armor, wielding their swords, and ready to fight. They conduct a nationwide hunt for something unusual that could be the source of the pandemonium. Until they discovered a huge Shadow Dome in the center of their nation, a dark aura surrounds the dome, and gusts of wind are blowing from the Shadow Dome, indicating that it was constructed by a powerful entity. When the King saw this, he felt startled and worried.
IN THE CENTER OF CASUS NATION
IN THE LOCATION OF THE SHADOW DOME
King Dilan: "I-it can't be." he said worriedly.
Eury: "What is that, father? Have you seen anything like that before?" he said worriedly to his shocked father.
King Dilan: "Ah, I-I don't know." he uttered in a low mannered volume.
The civilians and soldiers went to the Shadow Dome, where the king was waiting to tell them his decision. King Dilan clinched his sword, ordering the nation into a sudden state of evacuation.
King Dilan: "Listen! Citizen of Casus Nation, I declare a state of evacuation. But be calm, a dozen soldiers will accompany you to the nearest allied Nation of Katania." he shouted.
The civilian started murmuring about their current condition, but they obeyed the King's order to ensure their safety. King Dilan advised Eury that he must as well flee, leaving only the King and the best swordsman of the Casus Nation.
To avoid chaos during the evacuation, the civilian begins departing with a twelve soldiers under command. And they're on their way to the Casus Nation gate, where they'll seek sanctuary and plead for assistance from Katania Nation.
King Dilan: "Son, you must also flee and watch our people and to secure their safety so they can arrive at the Katania Nation without worrying that death might tail them" he said in his low voice.
Eury: "Death tailing them? That won't happen if we stop everything that can happen here." he said in an arrogant tone.
King Dilan: "Just listen to me, Eury. I don't want you to get hurt" he said calmly.
Eury: "Hm, don't worry me, Father. I'm going to be the greatest swordsman; remember? Maybe this disaster is happening just to showcase how I am going to become one." he said with a smile on his face.
A brief moment after Eury said those words. Suddenly, a burst of dark energy came from the shadow dome and flew toward the Casus Nation gate, blocking their only path out, as if the Shadow Dome were listening.
IN THE GATE OF CASUS NATION
The terrified voices of the people echoed in the background. The citizens are once again scared, and the dozen soldiers were left powerless due to their current situation at the gate, which is covered with dark energy, preventing them from leaving. The twelve soldiers had no choice but to return to King Dilan to learn what his plan would be in the current circumstances. So they all returned to the Shadow Dome, where the King was.
IN THE CENTER OF CASUS NATION
IN THE LOCATION OF THE SHADOW DOME
Citizen: "King, help us. We don't want to die here" she said in a desperate voice.
A soldier informs the King of the situation at the gate. The backdrop is now filled with the sounds of vulnerable citizens who want to live and seek assistance from their King in order to survive. King Dilan ordered the twelve troops to get the citizens to the castle and assured their safety.
Soldier: "King, we have a situation. The gate is totally covered in dark energy, preventing us from evacuating" he said while breathing loudly.
King Dilan: "I see. Evacuate the citizens to the castle. Remain in control to avoid panicking and chaos. Make sure everyone's unharmed." he shouted.
Dozen Soldiers: "Yes your Majesty!" they said loudly.
On King Dilan's orders, the dozen troops moved the citizen to the castle. However, while this was going on, a gust of wind and a dark aura enveloped the Shadow Dome and caused it to grow in size. So they rush the evacuation. As a strong blast of wind blew out from the shadow dome, the troops of the Casus Nation surrounded it to ready for whatever might happen.
As they surrounded the Shadow Dome, it emitted a greater aura and expanded in size. While King Dilan, Eury, and the soldier covered their eyes from the violent wind of dust and small stones that came from the Shadow Dome, in the blink of an eye, being cloaked in a black robe with a black glowing hand swiftly appeared from inside the shadow dome and struck Eury with a swirling shadow blast. Eury did not respond in time, so he took the hit and forced him to kneel to the ground. Surprisingly, another entity emerges from the shadow dome and assaults Eury with a shadow blast. However, this time he used his claymore to repel the strike. But Eury is instantly engaged in a two-on-one struggle with the entity that emerges from the Shadow Dome.
Eury: "Argh, that's kind of too much, but two on one? Tsk, I'll take you on both," he said while graunting and clinching his sword.
King Dilan and the soldiers later discovered that a being emerged from the Shadow Dome. And King Dilan dashed over to assist Eury in a two-on-one battle.
King Dilan: "Soldiers, keep an eye on the Shadow Dome; beings may come from it." he warned as he ran towards Eury.
Suddenly, a figure cloaked in black robes materialized before King Dilan and the soldiers, emerging from the depths of the Shadow Dome. With an ominous aura surrounding them, the figure raised their hand, conjuring a swirling mass of dark magic, ready to unleash its destructive power upon them. Their intent is clear: to eradicate every single one of them with a devastating shadow blast.
