In the distant lands of Shiny Star Kingdom, Qiao Daiyu was deep in training when she noticed a brilliant light piercing the sky. She frowned, puzzled. "What is that...?"
Li Zhin approached, equally confused. "A light..."
Daiyu glanced at him. "Do you know anything about it?"
Li Zhin shook his head. "No idea, but something that bright must be a sign of something significant."

Meanwhile, in the Elven Kingdom, Adika sat across from King Alarion, sipping tea. Both of them had sensed the surge of power.
"This presence..." Adika murmured.
Alarion nodded. "There's no mistake. It's Liebbe Castro."
Adika exhaled. "After the war that destroyed Laury Kingdom, she's moving freely now."
"Only two cores remain," Alarion said, his gaze sharp. "Are you planning to act?"
Adika smirked. "Alex is already on it. What about you? This is your world—shouldn't you be defending it?"
Alarion leaned back in his chair. "...How about I send one of our strongest elves to accompany you?"
