The First Spatial Quake killed over 150 million people and destroyed a portion of the Eurasian Continent. To this day, nobody knows how they occur, but rather...they're caused by someone, someone not from this world. The AST and DEM are made to comb...
The Balladeer is seen on top of the White Queen's castle, which is surprisingly mobile thanks to upgrades he put in. He stared at the horizon, his plans almost coming to an end, and wanting to see his loved ones again. Just then, one of the castle's servants comes in a frantic.
Servant: "Lord Balladeer!"
Balladeer: "What is it?"
Servant: "Something is coming through the timestream!!"
The Balladeer's eyes widen as he puts up a screen and his eyes widen when he sees a giant creature with a stone puppet body and a golden torso hanging from its back.
Balladeer: "RAISE THE DEFENSES!! DO NOT LET THAT THING ENTER THIS DIMENSION!!"
The servant nods rapidly as they and the others activate an energy blockage within the timestream to block off whatever is traveling through.
Balladeer: "Damn it all...that was close. Bring up a screen of whatever is there."
A servant presses a button and the Balladeer's eyes go big until an angry face forms.

In the Ratatoskr Base, The Knave sits in her tent with her eyes closed, recalling a conversation she had with someone in the past.
???: "You're...leaving?"
Knave: "...Allowing her to get what she wants is not what I want, brother. I hope someday, she will understand the concept of life and death...and what we did defies it. With my departure, she will be weakened."
???: "I know but Isaac Westcott might see this chance to claim her. Doing that, he will get what he wants and then all of this world will fall."
Knave: "It won't happen. You understand that fact: you and the other Heirs. Moreover, allowing her to do what she wants will ensure ruin. You don't want that and you want to help her."
???: "I...I know. While I do not condone the fact that she brought someone back from the dead and threatens to kill the others for his sake, I will do my best and await your return."
The Knave Looked at the man who was speaking to her.
