A Prelude

The festive aura that had colored the atmosphere of the various powers that were gathered in ships around the door of the First Hell slowly began to dwindle as more and more powers knew of the deaths of their disciples or trainees.

Many of these powers had various ways to keep track of the status of their disciple, the number of those facing death quickly becoming known as murmurs began to spread throughout. They could all feel it- something was different about the Infernal Hunt currently taking place!

"Too many of our disciples are losing their lives, and too quickly at that!"

"Something is wrong, our Core Disciples would never be taken down this easily. We need to send others in to investigate."
