Prologue : The Night Before

August Armbrust's return from Centena started to cause many people to wonder what would happen. Currently, the Nox Government has made no movement whatsoever. The world was in temporary freedom while August was gone. Yet people still feared, many people were taken away trapped in Diamond City. In August's return, and his reclaiming the throne of Satrus, Operation Liberation started their secret summit. The meeting between the nations allied with Operation Liberation, and their future plan forward. Of course the location was undisclosed, yet the news has spread to the likes of the Nox Government. The people in Diamond City are supporters of Vesh, and claim they should act now while world nation leaders are gone. Vesh has not talked to the public since.

Meanwhile, the Nox Government has been prepared, they seem to have not made any move and is still confined within Diamond City. What will be Vesh's counter attack? What will Operation Liberation do? Everyone is preparing for a great war that will cause Nox to shake to its core.

[Meanwhile at Diamond City]

"Everyone! Come over, it's starting!"

"VESH! What is the current situation!"

"VESH! How are you going to deal with the tyrant August!"

The supporters of Vesh have gathered around the city square to hear Vesh speak. In the past, Vesh rarely appeared to the public.

Vesh walked up to the stage, his long white hair and black suit, his sharp gaze with his crystal blue eyes, he shouted.

"Citizen of Diamond City, you have all lived in a rather luxurious place, this has all been possible thanks to Lux. It has come to light that Lux has abandoned us, this gives me full authority to cause as much mayhem within Nox. My goal shall be to be able to rule this world with an iron fist!"

Some words Vesh talked about didn't make sense to normal people, only a selected few understood about who [Lux] is/was.

"I will recreate this world to my own image, a world ruled under my name, under my protection!"

"VESH! VESH! VESH!"

The people of Diamond City didn't need to doubt him. The city itself was one of the most advanced cities in Nox, and they lived off of Vesh's mysterious resources. His boundless knowledge led many to follow his path. Yet some people were worried about Vesh's speech.

"But, if you rule this world, won't we also get destroyed? I don't want to die!"

"Do not worry, I do not want a world with no humans. Every one of you citizens of Diamond City, shall be the first humans to survive the reset of Nox. Yet first, you must worship me. I will not allow anyone who doesn't follow me into paradise!"

Everyone started chanting his name. Vesh cleared their hearts of any doubt, as Vesh steps off from the stage, in walks Zyrain,

"I am the current Nexus, for our plans to work, we need the civilians to evacuate."

"Evacuate?"

"Please head to the gates... Our Dux will show you..."

As the speech ended abruptly people started to head to the gates. Xenor walks up to Zyrain,

"Thank you, for your service."

"Sir Xenor!"

"Relax, you are older than me."

Lena sighs, "What's the point of this? Why allow citizens to go into one of the emergency shelters? It's been shut down and too dangerous for anyone to head."
