From the message Robin received on the Dark Web, a chilling sense of certainty gripped him. The factions of the World of Darkness were stirring, their movements subtle but unmistakable, lurking in the shadows like predators on the hunt.

He had made his intentions clear to the world before i struck–bait, meant to draw them out. He wanted them to show themselves, to reveal their true faces.

At the same time, it was a warning–a sharp reminder to those killers still lurking in the darkness that they could no longer hide. One by one, they would be forced into the open.

Fear, he knew, would be the key. Only a shock of such magnitude could instill the terror he sought.

Once they feared him, they would unite. The factions would form an alliance, their combined strength. focused on Divine Drakebane.

Robin would not have to hunt them down, one by one.

The plan was unfolding perfectly. His bold move toward Borealis had sent ripples through the dark waters, a ripple that would spread far and wide.

Combined with the bloody purges in Sakurania and Elaria, it was enough to rattle even the most resolute.

The forces of darkness would converge in Snow Valley, all of them aiming for the same target: Divine

Drakebane.

This was the chaos Robin had sought to sow.

The path of vengeance had been laid. Now, there would be no escape for any of them.

The Dark Web had confirmed his suspicions. Factions were already gathering in Snow Valley, each more dangerous than the last.

Robin understood the risks. Such a brazen display of power would undoubtedly stir unease among the elites.

Those who wore the mantle of justice–who claimed to safeguard humanity–would now see Divine Drakebane as a threat to their meticulously crafted order.

They might turn a blind eye, allowing the World of Darkness to deal with him in their own way, waiting for an opportunity to reap the rewards once the deed was done.

But if they saw that Divine Drakebane was too powerful to ignore, if the super martial art masters of the World of Darkness failed to make an impact, they would not hesitate to intervene.

They would offer their own strength to the dark forces, tipping the scales further against Robin.

If that came to pass, Robin knew the world’s mightiest would turn their attention on him.

He had no guarantee of making it out alive or unscathed.

Even outnumbered, his resolve would never falter. Vengeance had a grip on him that no force could shake.
