The Holy Lands' Choose their Camps

The news of the Sage Kings' death spread like candy boxes in an assembly of hyperactive children. And so, as the mutant hordes carried on with their ceaseless faction pillage, the leaders of the higher Ranges unanimously contacted their superiors in Heaven to ask for guidance. 

"24 Emperor-level plaguebringers of alien features have risen in the Second Range, subdued it at blitzkrieg speed, and set sight on the third. At this pace, it won't be long before they topple our bases in the Sixth Range." Though framed somewhat differently, depending on the faction, this message reached all Holy Lands' headquarters. Clearly, the branches in the Mountain Edge World couldn't see through the 24 Heralds' abilities and just gave the most alarming assessment they could to prompt their bosses into immediate actions.
