The corridor behind the secret chamber led to a larger plaza.
The overall style was black, and in the middle of the square was a group of people wearing gray robes.
They were in fierce discussion about something.
In their midst,
there lay a blurry and blood-stained corpse.
"This body is still not suitable; its inner thoughts cannot support the coming of the 'egg'."
"To summon back our deity from the aurora, we must use the most extreme methods. I think a large ritual would be best."
"Indeed, no creature's womb can bear the 'egg'. It cannot be nurtured by any being."
"People in the Divine Country have no value for sacrifice; we need followers of other deities. Besides, we haven't found the fragments of the egg yet."
"Recently, in the Maple Leaf County, there's been a fluctuation of the 'Black Moon'. It was a product of the sun's split and resonates with the 'egg'. I sensed its descending location, where a fragment was left when the egg shattered and fled into the aurora."
