A New Start

The Shadow Order had been quiet since the One-Hour War.After all, their best branch across the federation—the cluster city branch was destroyed. Their black markets closed down, dealing a lethal blow to their finances.All thanks to a man they hated to their core.To make themselves seem less pathetic than they were, they started painting him as a monster.A man who couldn't be caught. A fighter who was only below Sovereigns.  A creature that wasn't even a human.That was the mental image Shadow Order desperately painted.That way, the fact that they were crushed under Dreamer, again and again, wouldn't seem shameful.After all, who could fight such a monster? Their loss was only natural.No matter their extremist activities, their PR sense was perfect.Using this excuse, they not only repaired their damaged image but also elevate themselves as an organization that fought off this horrible monster and came out alive.
