The Return to the Palace

Just as Benjamin predicted, the dispatch of the Church’s battalion had Gealorre Capital’s defense at its weakest. A few hundred Holy Knights stood by the city gates were at wit’s end, not knowing what to do. Decades of Priests surfaced out and caught a glimpse of Benjamin from afar, and ran the other way.
