Saturn 5

Kronos Faction Home Planet

A magus flew toward the palace, his excitement palpable as he hurried through the grand corridors. Bursting into the main hall, he interrupted a meeting in progress. "Father!! Have you heard?! The faction has made a move on that lowly Earthlink!"

The grand magus, surrounded by advisors and high-ranking officials, remained undisturbed by the interruption. His presence exuded authority and calm. With a slight gesture, he dismissed his subjects, who quickly and quietly exited the room, leaving father and son alone.

"Yes, I have heard… it seems our effort to stir up those in the Magus Academy has borne fruit. Lady Ishtar has made her move."

The magus's eyes gleamed with excitement. Lady Ishtar of the Astiel family was a formidable force, one of the powerful branch families with strength surpassing most grade 3 factions. Her involvement would surely spell disaster for the Earth faction.
