Cassandra, along with the remaining city guards, took charge of clearing out the remnants of the cultists scattered across the jungles and nearby villages. As they systematically eradicated the cult's presence, they uncovered a chilling revelation: the cult's ultimate plan was a large-scale attack on Magisteria itself.
