Atlas stood atop the Ceremonial Plaza, the grand stage where a total of 656 combatants, 163 workers, and 13 elite subordinates had gathered, forming a wide circle around him that bright morning. And of course, he didn't forget. Their youngest residents were there too: one tiny baby cradled in gentle arms, and one little boy standing proudly near the front.
In just a few more minutes, the current Lord Battle Season would officially conclude, marking the end of everyone's long and exhausting struggle.
It all began with Atlas's first victory in rank-1: a defense battle against Alaric Van Helhausen, the Lord of the Isle of Nova Cogs. A commander who controlled legions of drones capable of devastating aerial assaults. Atlas, aided by Morganna, Lyrassa, and Serenith, managed to win that fight swiftly, bringing down Alaric himself and securing his first triumph.
Soon after he reached level 100, and that victory propelled Atlas to rank 2, unlocking his next class advancement.
