Fighting will

The Sacred Kings and Orgullo were surprised to see Zatiel suddenly disappear like that. There were conflicted emotions in all of them and did not really know what to do right now.

They had won the war, and all their friends and family that perished were in the process of reincarnation, yet there was no jovial aura in them. 

What they had learned from the Beyonder showed them how little meaning their great battle had since, from the beginning, they were destined to win. The Knights that nearly pushed them to their end were nothing more than sacrificial pawns, all with the purpose of acting as catalyzers for Zatiel's evolution into the Late Stage Fourth Realm. 

If, from the start, the Beyonder and destiny itself had marked their victory, some could not help but wonder if their triumph had any meaning at all. The Sacred Kings were sure that the one that was more affected by those thoughts was no one else but the leader of the Daybreak Universe.
