Suppressing the Curtained World-Final

Daniel tapped and swiped his wrist console for a bit, then the main screen changed.

"There's a reason why I only allowed my assistance to suppress half of them, and why I let the local authorities with my weapons work on their own… which means." The screen changed again, displaying a list of places still marked in red, now reduced to fewer than 130.

This reduction was the result of Nexus Prime using drones to eliminate half of the dissenters first. Then, when mages caused trouble in areas where local authorities had purchased weapons from Astral Corp, the number decreased further. The remaining red areas were either locations where mages were only performing rituals or where local authorities lacked the weapons to deal with the mages.

The holo projector on the ceiling then displayed another scene: the interior of the Clockwork Enclosure, where various magical and mythological creatures roamed the land, thriving under the supervision of elves and worker drones.
