Despite the Founders of the Four Holy Families' valiant efforts, no one from the Celestial, Dragon, or Reaper realms stepped forward to assist them.
The fear of incurring the wrath of the four powerful nature gods was too great.
Yulran, the wounded Fire Dragon, managed to escape with the help of the Water Celestial and landed in the Far West, where he was nursed back to health by a beautiful human. His encounter with her ignited a newfound love for humans.
The Water Celestial was injured while saving his friend and landed in another corner of the Far West Major Realm. The Night Reaper and the Sun Giant also found themselves stranded there.
The gods destroyed the Flying Empire as a warning to the inhabitants of the Thousand Great Worlds that no one should attempt to deify themselves. They then rewrote history to fool the masses, claiming that they were their saviors and Alkheim was the devil that intended to destroy everything.
