[Joshua]

   
The Grand Guignol's Sabbath and the attempting of Varrach's revival stirred Meranthe in a way it hasn't before. Jokul's effort in felling the Imperfect Demon would've been for naught should this ritual be allowed to happen...thus, the Empire is called to action.
  
Troops were rounded up from nations across all of Meranthe --ranging from the Final Frontier to Aphros and their goal would be to storm Mt. Grimhjall where the ritual would take place.
  
An encampment sits nearby, looking up to the brewing clouds.
   

"Hear me, people of Meranthe. The Dark Lord Varrach must not be revived at any costs; it took mine Father's full strength along with the blessings he received from the Pantheon to fell the demon once...we cannot let his efforts be in vain.
  
So we fight.
   
We will claim his weapon and put an end to this twisted game the Deep Hold is trying. Tonight, they will be stopped!"

    
And so, the Empire moves against the Deep Hold's forces in an effort to prevent the Imperfect's revival!
