Important people from all over Urania came to enjoy the masquerade themed auction. Those who were human, and those who were Elemental disguised as humans. Things seemed to have been going according to plan... That is, until it didn't of course. 

​

Darzi and his guests, the police, and the auction staff have been left dead after a massive attack. The whole place is a crime scene with barely any witnesses to speak of the event. Even then, they've come down with the plague too, fogging their minds and leaving them less than useful.

​

Zayd Griffith, and a significant amount of other guests have been reported missing after the incident, likely dead or kidnapped. There's no sign of the elementals, Talion, or Concord, who allegedly made a surprise appearance at the auction.

​

Known survivors of the party include:

Boris d'Angelo

Tenney Calvin

Gabrielle Sterling

Vivial Aroes

Percival Beaumont

Emerson Wilde

Lucas Bellemore

​

All of which have been hospitalized except for Percival, who left the party just before a lockdown was called.

​

Cleo Marconi has been reported found after the incident. They claimed to have been captured by the notorious Talion, and escaped after being left alone in their submarine while the crew failed to return them to their family as per request. Cleo's father, Geralt Marconi, unfortunately perished during the auction, leaving Cleo as the only eligible family member to inherit his life's work.

Cleo is making public their anger involving the new elemental radicalism on the rise in Urania, and has begun sponsoring hunts to capture them.

​

​

The man Talion and Concord know as Zadkiel has made himself more present. Bringing a plague upon Urania for purposes unknown. Humans are dropping like flies with no known end to the Manic Plague. It seems to be affecting much more than humans after the auction incident. The surrounding area has been deemed a quarantine zone and is under strict lockdown... Animals and insects are being affected, not falling ill, but becoming ghostlike in many ways, but do not seem to be in any distress. More research is set to be done to find the cause.

​

So where are we?

​

In the chaos, Talion and Concord escaped. Some members mixing in with the opposite faction. It all seems to be a blur, but we've made it to our vessels in one piece with the elementals that we'd set out to rescue.

​

Elementals rescued:

Sasha Kuznetsov

Kai Ferrow

Tomàs Oriol

Alexandria Amaya

Ari

Asenia Darmyth

Damien Folie

Bailey Wicke

Leandro (Lenny) Butler

​

However...

​

Both factions, thought to be immune to the plague, are now experiencing the illness differently within some crewmembers, while others remain unaffected.

​

Affected crewmates:

Lorelei
Eve
Mortimer
Warner
Esther
Evie
Clay
Sima
Jean

Chester
Carlyle
Poppy
Rowan
Finley

Kamen

Aaliyah

Huo

Aedus

Olga

​

Our healers are working to the best of their ability to find out what's wrong with them and how to fix it. Results will be revealed next chapter...

​

Both Concord and Talion have gained a small amount of public opinion due to talking some surviving party guests into favoring one or the other.
