The alpha insisted on entering the ominous land polluted by Chaos, which caused disagreement in the group.
The dispute was not surprising: the team that accompanied her consisted of three forces, including the knights of Fort Raven, who besides serving as the guide and guard of the alpha, were also messengers sent to White City by the governor of the southern front, Ulysses. The second force was the Sanctum investigators led by Calaxus. Their purpose was to cross the Kingdom of Taros to search for the Cassouin Grand Temple in the wilderness. The third force was the personal guards of the alpha consisting of demonic wolves, ogres, and bear monsters. Lily had selected them because they were ferocious fighters, loyal to her, and would do whatever the alpha said without questions.
They would make good travel companions, but now they would not see eye to eye.
