Chương 237: Those That Remained

[Music Recommendation: "Night in the Brume" by Masayoshi Soken (Final Fantasy XIV OST) - available in Spotify or Youtube]

Amidst all the darkness that hovered around the whole planet, there was one place alone that the darkness didn't touch. It was none other than the extension of land in Luna's continent that connects towards the edge of Ignis' and Ducis' continents. A thick, translucent barrier covered the place, keeping the miasma away. The team went towards it, and as they guessed, it was the place where the Sortis family gathered all the remaining Magi.

Their number seemed to amount to millions of people from afar, but when the team drew near… only half of them were living beings. The rest were all dead bodies lying on the ground as if they were merely sleeping and yet, no life energy could be sensed among them.
