After Gloria left the capital of the Kingdom of the Waves to go to Dry City, several things happened in Athela.
First of all, the strongest subordinates of the Walker family and the members of the royalty who were on the Black Plain had returned to headquarters.
That was not only the farewell opportunity these people would have to the last two great leaders of this organization but also a necessity. After all, the family had been significantly weakened by Minos' actions, and more than ever, they needed to be united in the face of the present threat.
And unfortunately for them, this threat was not only Minos!
The region was large, and many powers were just waiting for a chance to rebel or to start plotting all kinds of dishonest acts behind the curtains.
And, having just lost the only two people capable of genuinely suppressing these unscrupulous organizations, there was a need for this royal family to be united at this difficult time.
