Elders the remainder were formidable
Warriors yet they had fallen victim to a
surprise attack from a being of Royal
caliber the saintus had attained the
10th lay of the witch's heart Sutra
rendering her comparable to a newly
ascended Royal level Powerhouse had she
not not intended to spare their lives
for her sacrificial ritual they would
have met their demise long AIA ugan 2
resolved to confront the saintus
alongside them only by slaying her could
they grasp a glimmer of hope with the
formations core elusive their only
recourse lay in eliminating the saintus
who was dependent on the formation for
sustenance perhaps this could unravel
the sacrificial array though vanquishing
a royal level saintus would be no easy
feat United in purpose they might yet
succeed for would it not be said that
many ants could bring down an elephant
before long most had regained their
senses gushin designated an individual
to care for those unable to move and led
the remaining members onward as they
proceeded he queried tonon did you
encounter any Elders from the other
clans during your arrival the black
which clan comprised seven prominent
families each led by a clan Elder
passing down their legacy through
generations Ganon being the sole
daughter of the clan leader guien had
met all the clan elders during the
annual sacrificial ceremonies
necessitating her proactive greetings I
did not see any members of the other
families when I arrived not even the
elite descendants however I cannot speak
for the present guon tion responded
decisively she had noticed this absence
in the Square earlier hence her answer
was smooth and truthful could it be that
the informants failed to relay the news
to the other clans a voice of
astonishment arose from behind although
rivalries existed among the Clans such
an earth shattering Revelation should
have prompted cooperation could it be an
elderly voice interjected imbued with
gravity the implication was clear to all
had the saintus wrought further mischief
to the square guien commanded without
hesitation since the saintus had laid a
formation there it was imperative for
them to investigate they had now exited
the confines of the Forbidden chamber
outside the sky was Ablaze with Crimson
Hues as if set a flame the once pristine
and ancient stone path had been rendered
unrecognized iable riddled with potholes
akin to a construction site numerous
bizarre creatures roam the path
jellylike humanoids humanoid corpses
wrapped in tattered black Rags elongated
two-headed worms slithering along and
various decayed animals this site
invoked memories of a long ago hidden
dungeon the land of the underworld where
the creatures bore resemblance to these
albeit with a greater variety giu
tontion turned to her father inquiring
father are these the Netherworld
creatures from whence do they originate
such beings were numerous not in a dense
throng but nearly all within sight were
these repulsive entities indicative of
their vast numbers they are unique to
the underworld possessing a variety of
forms that do not belong to any
particular race dwelling in isolation
the terrain is marshy steeped in deathly
energy and other races dare not tread
there for it is too treacherous thus it
is aptly named the Netherworld guian
explained pausing before continuing they
are exceedingly difficult to combat
though not be deceived by the ease with
which the guards seem to dispatch them
within 10 minutes they will resurrect a
new only light and fire Mages can
inflict lethal damage upon them
particularly light Mages yet they are
exceedingly rare our black which Clans
sorceresses practice dark magic
rendering us incapable of countering
their existence aside from the guards
there were no other members of the black
which clan near the Forbidden chamber
