Before the arrival of Thoren, Suncrest City had been teetering on the edge of destruction.
The sudden appearance of the strange group that had emerged from the Abyss, followed by the breakout of the massive beast tide, had completely changed the trajectory of the city.
What had initially been considered another dangerous incident connected to the Abyss had quickly turned into something much more serious, and the continuous disappearance of people afterward had only made the situation worse..
At first, it had been easy to dismiss the disappearances as casualties caused by the chaos.
Many people had died during the beast tide, and countless bodies had been recovered from the streets and destroyed buildings.
So nobody immediately considered the missing people to be connected to something else. But as the time passed, the number of missing people continued to increase.
Some disappeared from their homes.
Some vanished while traveling through the streets.
