Far from where Frey was… deep within Noctherra, the City of Eternal Night .
in a strange, wondrous place built amid the heavens ..
stood a majestic edifice overlooking the skies, from which poured the waterfall of holy power that nourished the land with blessings.
At its summit stood three men—two in pure white vestments, the third cloaked in black.
They were none other than the Church's three bishops: Blattier, Platini, and Calistes.
"It seems the battle has already begun," Calistes remarked, hands clasped behind his back as he stared toward the distant horizon—commenting on the fight raging on the far side of Noctherra.
"Frey Starlight… he lives up to the rumors. A true monster." Smiling, Calistes turned to Blattier. "Is that why you put the name Starlight on the Revelation Tablet, High Bishop Blattier?" he asked lightly.
Silence fell.
The other bishops showed no reaction, but had anyone else been present, the words out of Calistes's mouth would have sparked a catastrophe.
