The abysmal weather continued, the day after. In fact, it was more unforgiving than before. Adamah seemed to be drowning as the heaven cried continuously.

The troops from the Phoenix clan continued to camp outside the northern gate of Naelyan as they awaited for the king's order.

Inside the wall of Naelyan, the evacuation of children, teenage girls, women, disabled, sick and elderly began. They were being relocated in the forest near the Mystic Lake of Draconem, where tents were already been set up. The place was being heavily guarded by soldiers, medical personnel and other officials to ensure that the Vatrian people were provided comfort, food and shelter. While, all the abled teen males and adult men marched to their designated stations.

In the Aeolian kingdom, it was already passed noonday when Prince Luca woke up from his slumber. He came back to the palace a little after ten in the morning. He immediately called the court's council to provide him status report about the preparation to ensure the safety of the Aeolian populace, in case, the peace talks fail.

In his chamber, the king of the Phoenix had summoned the twin knights.

"Your Highness, the twin knights are here." The king's esquire announced from outside of his chamber.

The king opened his chamber's door.

"Your Highness." The twin knights said as they bowed before their king.

"Follow me to my study chamber," King Nike said as he walked pass them.

As the king walked, two esquire walked ahead of him from both sides, King Nike was in the middle and the twin knights followed behind.

After passing two long corridors, the esquires opened the door to the study chamber of the king. King Nike entered and the twins followed suit.

Once the three notable personalities entered the chamber, the esquires closed the door and guarded the room from the outside.
