All manner of thoughts surged through the minds of the generals and high-ranking officials of the Xaos Kingdom as they heard Vlad's chilling directive. Transporting the captured Exilion soldiers to the Obelisk could only mean one thing: their bodies would be used as biomass in the creation of new Thiamatos units—more Reapers.

The Zanis family's influence had been uprooted, their command structure disoriented and disarmed. There was nothing left on the continent that could threaten Xaos rule.
However, this victory was only a foothold—just the beginning. The true conquest was yet to come.
