Forty-Seven - The Fall of Rome

Downcaster, Sullen Grounds

The Heart of Samira Empire

Mr. Mercer courageously stood at the front door, glaring back at the crowd of assassins outside Downcaster. Hellfires and Centuria were swarming the grounds. The alarming news reached the main chamber, putting Renard up to his feet. Even Devonne's side of the manor had its own blockade. There was an obvious panic in the house. Scrambling from corners to corners.

"What is going on here?" Renard demanded an explanation the moment he landed on the main floor.

"Look outside, my lord." Mr. Mercer quietly stated.

Renard, with his head, held high, stepped outside. His eyebrows crested as he scanned the grounds. The two assassins of the Conglomerate were outside, on orders he was not informed nor counsel with. The head of the army walked ominously to him. Renard maintained his position, proudly.
