Lichen's eyes narrowed. Suddenly, all his thoughts and feelings of danger had vanished. It felt like there was only one reason for this...
Ryu had left the world. But was that possible? Had he really come here for no reason? Or was this a ploy by the Real Plane to make them waste their Faith? Had they been outplayed?
Lichen looked off into the distance. The cloudy skies had gained some purplish-black hues.

In that case, he would just have to destroy it.
What chance did they stand now?
Lichen took a step and a campaign that rampaged across the Ashen Snow Holy World began.
