By the next morning, Stellar City was already boiling with rumors.
The name Black Star had always carried weight, especially among players, and the moment word spread that their hidden base had been destroyed, every part of the city started talking at once. The streets were loud with guesses, and on the forums the threads were multiplying by the minute as players, information brokers, and people who knew nothing all tried to sound certain.
Gabriel had already made one thing clear to ChaosKnight before leaving their tower.
No one was to speak about what happened.
Because of that, none of them said a word, and that only made the mystery worse. White Phantom had been seen in the city, yes, but after that nothing concrete came out. No names. No witnesses stepping forward boldly. No guild claiming responsibility. The silence itself only pushed people to speculate harder.
