What happened between the True Beginning Empire and the Shining Torrent Empire was far closer to bullying than war—an outright overpowering, a one-sided domination so effortless it resembled a grown adult casually snatching candy from a helpless child. Everything unfolded at an unbelievable speed, without the slightest hint of real resistance, as if the Shining Torrent's defenses were nothing more than thin paper walls collapsing under a storm.
This continued to such an extent that the Shining Torrent Empire sent multiple surrender requests—formal pleas begging the True Beginning Empire to halt the assault and accept terms for disengagement. But not a single request received attention. None was even acknowledged.
