After the press conference, the world erupted in chaos over Daniel's revelation about the Curtained World. Initially, elites in various countries attempted to downplay the announcement, dismissing it as a hoax or an elaborate drama orchestrated by Daniel Emberweave.
They managed to convince some individuals already entrenched in anti-Astral Corp sentiment. However, many remained skeptical, torn between disbelief and the desire for truth. These skeptics urged their governments, particularly the UK, to investigate further.
