A group of mysterious individuals gathered on an inhabited island not far from the coast of the Sky Deceiving Valley. They were wearing cloaks that were slightly different from the ones the cults used but also shared quite a few resemblances.
The group leader suddenly said when he saw that everyone finally arrived. "How is the progress?"
One of the hooded individuals stepped forward and reported. "The sacrifices are already prepared. We are only waiting for the right to opportunity to use them."
Hearing that, another person suddenly smirked and said. "What is the use of the sacrifices when our target is already been killed."
"We went through a lot of trouble just to weaken and corrupt the Sea Spirit. But in the end, the one who benefited is not us, but that Battle God Sickarius. Moreover, it seems like he has already used the Sea Soul for something, which is why the faction quest is triggered," he added with a deep sigh.
