Worries.

The news of war spread throughout the kingdom like wildfire.

Suddenly, the bad premonition in everyone's heart had come to be. Things had suddenly escalated so much that the king had announced war.

It wasn't just the royal house, even the common folk had started to realize something was wrong when every other day the royal soldiers were sent to different provinces for one reason or another.

Cities were quickly brimming with soldiers and the trade between all kingdoms instantly halted.

The merchants and tourists escaped the kingdom in a panic, so the streets naturally made space for soldiers.

Meanwhile, the royal family of the Steel Mountain Kingdom was also stupefied. 

They had only sent a spy to closely watch their actions considering the turbulent situations around the kingdom. Never in their wildest dreams had they imagined something like this would happen.
