Just after Floey completely absorbed and digested the soul of the headless worm monster, a series of strange events occurred in Bixie Crost, the Royal City.
Posters on the streets regarding the latest policies, flyers of decrees, headlines in various newspapers, and even some residents' personal diaries all mysteriously appeared with blank spaces.
No one knew why, and nobody was clear on what those blanks originally contained. Most people thought it was just a coincidence or some kind of oversight.
Although it sparked a bit of discussion, it was soon forgotten.
In a bar in the Lower District.
An unkempt, red-nosed patron suddenly started talking about a significant event that happened a couple of days ago in Fire Pattern Plaza in the Central District of the Royal City.
