A new round of war started because of the tension between Transcendents and gods. Transcendents banded together and rebelled against their rule.
First, they asked to be allowed to leave the plane. Their request was denied as it has always been done in the past. But unlike the past, things didn't end there. The transcendents attacked the seal on the planar portal in a bid to escape the rule of the gods.
Kilorita killed the first batch of transcendents
who dared to touch the seal. But it didn't quell the uprising. It only made more transcendents angry. Some Celestials also began to help the Freedom Fighters which strengthened their resolve and made them bolder.
The population of the plane is at an all-time low which means that the Celestials are also competing with each other. The only one not competing for believers is Kilorita.
