This was the same morning the Twelve High Nobles found about the revival of the Great Emperor. They don't know how but they were glad it was real.
Afterwhich, they spread false information about the death of their ruler. The reaction of the people was devastating to watch. Many cried and lost hope. They mourned and the streets of the Capital City quietened.
Messengers and spies spread the information, reaching other empires. In total, in the continent of Kresia, there are three standing empires.
First, the greatest empire to ever stand on Ressuim, Mealma Empire. The other two were much smaller to the brink of devolving into small kingdoms; Ramara Empire on the west and Haedorn Empire on the south. The former, standing near the coasts, having a great army in the sea while the latter is surrounded by mountains.
