A month had passed since the attack on Vanadias by the Behemoth. Yet, the consequence of their attack event barely lingered in the public consciousness. The true chaos had unfolded elsewhere, during the Exam of the Elites of Trinity Eden Academy, set in the Ashenor Forest. The students had inexplicably become the targets of the Teraquin Army who were supposed to protect them.
Behemoth attacking Vanadias?
For any other time, this alone would have been the news that shook the world.
The attack was soon overshadowed by an event even more shocking. Kendel Teraquin had ascended to the throne, crowning himself the new King. The speed of his rise was as startling as it was mysterious. His predecessor and mother, Tanya Teraquin, showed no signs of weakness or illness; she had been young and strong. Yet, she had vanished almost overnight, leaving her kingdom and people in stunned silence. No one knew the truth behind her sudden disappearance.
