Violet tucked the contract close to her chest. Just as she turned to leave, heavy war drums began to boom outside the temple.
At that moment, a frantic report came from Sky-Shattering Chieftain: "Your Highness Violet! Ten Demigod-stage Arbiters have reached ten kilometers out. Observer No. 3's pressure is coming with them!"
Gripping her Staff of Creation, Violet turned and walked toward the temple entrance.
The contents of the contract were too shocking. She had to pass the news to Logan immediately, but he was currently on defense duty. The space interference blocked all communication, she couldn't reach him.
Standing at the temple gate, she watched ten beams of different colored *rule-lights* rise in the distance, ten kilometers away. Her finger wounds were still bleeding. Every second she delayed increased the risk of the defense line collapsing.
