Weeks had passed since the mysterious coffin appeared with two mummies in the territory of the Ancestral Cult.
Since that day, Minos' forces had been searching for him, not exactly for his location, but for information and clues about their leader's orders. Unfortunately, not even a single trace of him was left behind.
Minos' family and allies would not worry if he had successfully fled on that fateful day. However, the strongest members of the force had seen how their leader had been brutally attacked and wounded by the being in the previous coffin.
The alliance had been in constant tension since then, with its leaders lacking exact answers on how to proceed under these circumstances.
Amid all this, the core of the alliance led by the Ancestral Cult had moved, leaving their city and palace behind, careful to avoid unfortunate encounters with the side of the successors of the Celestial King's enemies.
