The fight between Akiol and Dot rapidly spread across the Forums. A clip made by an individual named "Star Seeker" posted his livestream of the event.
It was clearly shocking to everyone. Mainly for two reasons. First, the ever powerful Dot who conquered even the Guilds was defeated by a single person. Second, the Sword Saint reappeared after months of silence. Defeating Dot as a returning achievement spurred the bored fans.
The developers piggybacked off the hype to further promote the game. Releasing their own—and much better—footage of the fight. Soon enough Six Lights' popularity skyrocketed once more. It was incredible that people with no previously known background could become so incredible.
There was however some backlash, shouldn't the event be over already? After all Dot had died! This was drowned out quickly, but regardless the developers stated it was a matter of conflicting quests. Akiol could not actually participate for the event and claim the rewards.
