– Frey Starlight's Pov –
I wonder… when did it all begin?
The turning point that changed everything—and toyed with the fate of mankind itself.
I suppose it started when Phoenix returned with the prince and Ghost, after spending a full seven hours exploring the isolated city we'd found earlier.
Upon their return, Phoenix reported that the place was a ghost town .. completely devoid of human life. The entire city had been abandoned just before we arrived.
The bad news was that despite its size, the city held nothing of real value that could help our group survive in the hellish lands of the Ultras.
Still, it wasn't all meaningless. We decided to stay in the city for the time being. One of the buildings contained a few beds and some clean clothes, at least.
Setting up camp there wasn't the worst idea, given that it was a fully enclosed area. If something happened, we could respond properly.
That was Phoenix's current decision—and that was where his report ended.
