Emperor Rakumtatak

The sudden appearance of Rakumtatak had an immediate impact on the atmosphere. Cecile and Selena, ever vigilant, exchanged stern looks that conveyed a clear message to Lyon – a silent warning that echoed their shared concern for his safety. Lyon, accustomed to facing formidable opponents, took note of this unspoken communication and understood the gravity of the situation. It was the first time he had witnessed Cecile's usual confidence replaced by a tinge of wariness, signaling that Rakumtatak was not to be underestimated.

As Lyon contemplated the dynamics at play, the emissaries from the Forgotten Lotus Clan seemed oblivious to the palpable tension. Seizing what they perceived as an opportunity to assert their presence, the men from the clan, driven by misplaced confidence, decided to challenge the orc emperor. Their decision, however, revealed their ignorance about the true identity of Rakumtatak, an oversight that would soon prove costly.
