     Marley, decades ago

???: Are you absolutely sure about this? The Tybers are-

???: Yes, I'm positive! This is the only way, we will never get an opportunity like this again.

The two Edlian restorationists had finally been served up a perfect chance to strike back at the Tybers, and at Marley itself. They had been stalking them for months, and using forged papers had been able to sneak around no problem. As Eldians restorationists they HATED the Tybers, based on what they had been taught they were traitors to all. They had taken away Elidians freedom, their pride, their power, their dignity, all they had valued most. So in an act of hatred and vengeance they were going to take the Tybers valued most, the warhammer titan, and thanks to agonizing months of preparation they knew which Tyber had it.

Every year the Tybers left to a home of theirs deep in the Marleian countryside to perform some sort of ritual, every so often it was an extremely special occasion. The two men had followed them all the way out there, eventually getting to their large house in the middle of a dense forest. The men packed light, two pistols each with one magazine, one knife each, and each carried a bottle of titan serum and an injection needle. They both were fully prepared to do whatever it took to accomplish their goal. Making their way into the house that was unguarded they followed the plan, they crept into the basement. Walking down stairs for what seemed like forever they heard a noise that grew ever louder until eventually they were greeted with an unbelievable sight.

They entered a massive room that was at the very least 20 Meters high and 40 Meters in diameter. It was cylinder in shape and its walls and floors were made entirely of stone brick. At the opposite end of the entrance they came in through were two parallel staircases that led up to what they wanted. A man that looked to be in his 40s his arms chained above him, his ankles shackled to the ground, his fists wrapped in tape, and a gag in his mouth. Bogdan Tyber, the man they now knew for certain to be the one that possessed the warhammer. Also in the room were many men, women, and even children. In particular there was a boy that looked no older than 18 with his arm extended ready to be injected with a serum by a woman that looked about 60.

Bogdan: "MMMMMMMMM!!!!!!!!!!"

He cried out being the first one to see the two men enter with their guns now in their hands by their sides. All of the other Tybers turned around and were at first confused as to who these people were, why they were there, and how they even got here. The woman holding the injection needle to the teenager's arm lowered the needle and began to walk up to the two men. Thanks to their preparation they knew who she was too. Iwona Tyber, considered by many to be the "grandmother" of the Tybers.

Iwona: Excuse me?! But who are you two?! we will have you shipped to Paradise for this!!! You-

Without a second thought one of the men raises their guns and puts a bullet right between her eyes, killing her instantly. The vile she was holding smashes against the ground at the same time as the rest of her body. The Tybers all gasp in horror, the children flee to nearby adults and cower behind them in fear. They hold all the other Tybers at gunpoint daring them to make a move.

???: Hold them there, now is the time to take revenge!

He starts walking forward to the middle of the room, putting his gun away and taking out his own bottle of titan serum. Realizing what is about to happen a Tyber tries to rush him and stop him.

Lukas Tyber: NOOOOOOO, DAMN YOU DEVIL!!!

He meets the same fate as Iwona as he is shot right through his heart. Next one of the Children, Thomas Tyber, makes a huge mistake by running to his now dead dad. With tears in his eyes and sadness and desperation in his voice.
