Next Day
Location: World's Alliance Headquarters at Otherworlders Continent!
Current Date: Year 24,991 | 1st Month Verdora | Day 3.
The World Alliance's Headquarters, buried deep within the heart of the Otherworlders' stronghold, stood as a lone bastion of order amidst a world teetering on the edge of chaos. The grand war chamber, a vast hall of obsidian-infused stone, exuded an oppressive might. Its walls absorbed the flickering light of enchanted torches, casting long, shifting shadows over the gathering of humanity's most powerful figures.
This was not merely a meeting of rulers and warriors, it was the forging of fate itself.
At the head of an imposing jet-black table, Supreme Commander Arthur Greaves sat in unshaken authority. His presence alone commanded the room, a storm contained within human form. Steel-gray eyes, honed by war and burdened by leadership, swept across the assembled leaders a collection of hardened generals, martial art masters, and master tacticians.
Each bore the scars of survival. Each carried the weight of loss. Each possessed the sheer, unyielding will to carve humanity's place in this merciless world.
These were not just leaders.
They were the last remnants of civilization's ruling class.
And tonight, they would decide the future of their kind.
A silence, thick and suffocating, settled over them like a storm on the horizon. It stretched, growing heavier, more absolute, until finally, Arthur's voice cleaved through it like a blade.
"We have established the three division teams necessary for our survival. Now, our next objective is clear: we must forge an organization to regulate all Ascendants."
His words carried the weight of unshakable authority, sinking into the minds of those present like iron chains binding destiny itself.
No one dared to question him. No one even breathed opposition.
Arthur's gaze sharpened, cutting through the dim torchlight like a predator surveying its domain.
"This world bows only to strength," he declared, his tone unwavering. "And we will ensure that those who rise in power do so under our banner not as unrestrained rogues, but as protectors of our people."
The very air seemed to hold its breath. His words did not demand mere obedience, they demanded conviction.
A lesser man would hesitate. A lesser ruler would falter. But Arthur Greaves was neither.
With a deliberate motion, he leaned forward, planting both hands on the cold obsidian table. The stone, ancient and unyielding, seemed to groan under the weight of the decision that would shape the future.
And no one in that room could deny it.
"What shall we name this organization?"
A heavy silence followed, stretching across the chamber like a shroud. The leaders exchanged uncertain glances, their expressions solemn. This was not a decision to be taken lightly.
A name was more than a title it was a declaration, a legacy, a banner under which humanity would rally.
Yet, no one spoke.
Then, at last, a voice cut through the stillness.
"Sir, we believe you should decide."
Arthur closed his eyes for a moment, his mind weighing the gravity of their cause. He was not one for hesitation. Nor for half-measures.
When he finally spoke, his voice carried the full force of a leader shaping destiny itself.
"Then from this day forth, we shall establish—The Otherworlders Ascendants Association (TOAA)."
The words settled over the chamber like an unbreakable decree.
For a moment, there was only stillness.
Then, one by one, the assembled leaders murmured their approval. The quiet hum grew, rising into a chorus of agreement. A ripple of resolve spread through the room.
The decision had been made.
The course of history had been set.

The Pillars of The Otherworlders Ascendants Association(TOAA);
With TOAA now officially formed, Arthur and the Grand Council wasted no time in defining its foundation. This was not to be a mere governing body it would be the law, the hammer of order in a world of chaos and unchecked power.
Key Functions:
1. Regulation of Ascendants – Establish ironclad laws to prevent destruction and disorder. No one would be allowed to wield power without consequence.
2. Balance of Power – Prevent any single faction, guild, or individual from rising unchecked. Strength must be controlled—not exploited.
3. Enforcement & Judgment– Deploy elite enforcers to hunt, capture, or eliminate those who defied TOAA's laws. Absolute power required absolute accountability.
4. Global Affairs Management– Act as mediators in conflicts between nations, guilds, and empires, ensuring that war did not spiral into annihilation.
5. Research & Advancement – Study ancient artifacts, forbidden magic, and the evolution of Ascendants to ensure humanity was always one step ahead of its enemies.

The Five Pillars of The Otherworlders Ascendants Association(TOAA):
1. The Ascendant Tribunal– The supreme judiciary tasked with prosecuting rogue Ascendants. Those who defied TOAA's laws would face swift and absolute judgment.
2. The Grand Council – The ruling body, composed of the most powerful strategists and leaders, responsible for shaping the political, military, and economic future.
3. The Enforcer Corps– A specialized combat unit tasked with tracking, capturing, or executing those who violated TOAA's rules. Their very presence inspired fear.
4. The Research & Development Division – A faction dedicated to unraveling the mysteries of magic, technology, and lost civilizations. Their discoveries would define the next era of human advancement.
5. The Guardian Order – An elite force of unparalleled warriors and mages, sworn to protect TOAA's headquarters and its highest-ranking members. They were the last line of defense against threats even the world feared.

A New Era Begins
As Arthur and the Grand Council finalized TOAA's structure, a single truth became evident;
TOAA was not just an organization.
It was humanity's shield and sword.
Those who submitted would find security.
Those who resisted would be eradicated.
The age of unregulated power had ended.
The era of TOAA had begun.
Arthur turned to the assembled leaders, his gaze unwavering.
"Does anyone object to this structure?"
Silence.
Then, all at once, the leaders responded.
"We fully support your decision, Supreme Commander!"
Arthur gave a firm nod, his confidence absolute.
"Then we move to the next crucial matter: the ranking system for Ascendants and the licenses granted by the Otherworlders Ascendants Association."
He paused, allowing the weight of the moment to settle.
Then, his voice darkened.
"Those who refuse… we will take serious action."
A suffocating silence filled the chamber.
No one dared to object.
The meeting had ended.
But the true battle for survival had only just begun.
And as the countdown to the barrier's collapse continued
One thing was certain.
The age of unchecked power is over.
The reign of The Otherworlders Ascendants Association(TOAA) had begun.
