[Outside the tower, an unknown area…]
Individuals in dark robes were standing all around an open plaza where the soil was stained dark.
A dark energy was oozing out from this soil. There was darkness all around them including the very atmosphere.
-Zaaaaaa…
A black fog covered the area, dark like the miasma found in the depths of hell. There were dark grains of sand in the air, crystals of darkness that should not have been present on earth.
In the distance, the Tower of Cessation was visible, however, the entire sky around it had been turned dark, a spiraling cloud tornado sucking in all the Mana that oozed out of it.
There used to be some buildings in this vicinity but there was nothing more than their debris left here, there was nothing more than a few traces of any human civilization left in this place.
Here, the individuals in dark robes were praying on their knees, their hands straight open and raised in the air above.
