"Do you have an urgent message for me?" Onandi was taken aback as he saw the stranger, a low-ranking soldier, rushing towards him. "Why didn't he use a communicator to contact me?"
"Because the situation was pressing, Commander Foster only had time to shout out over the broadcast channel."
"Is that so."
Onandi stood up, completely unaware that the unfamiliar soldier had already approached a dangerously close distance to him.
"Then..."
Just as he started to speak, he violently felt a heart-racing power explode within his body; under the impact of this force, his life force began to rapidly drain away, his entire body uncontrollably trembling.
This power... is the Night Mother!
Onandi realized what was happening, but it was all too late.
Those around him fell to the ground, one after the other, turned to ash in an instant, while he himself was grasped by the throat by Cecilia.
