Cannibalized

Though the Five Beast Clans had likely realized that something was wrong by now, there was nothing they could do. There were still seven more months before the gates opened once more, and Dyon had already systematically taken control of what few teleportation formations the beast clans had. They were, in effect, completely in the dark about the happenings of their territory. 

In addition, because the last campaign had just ended, the Five Beast Clans were likely entirely focused on healing up and preparing for their next assault on the Uidah. Dyon's timing couldn't have been more perfect. 

So, what was Dyon doing in the void of space, seemingly doing nothing while staring at endless blackness? 

Amphorae had told Dyon long ago about the true method to conquering a universe. It wasn't just about taking control of its people, one had to take the core of the universe for itself.
