Retrospective

Outside of Rise Online, the repercussions of what happened that early morning were gigantic. 

"The War that Lasted a Night" was what many news portals were calling this unprecedented event, and it seemed to have been one of those nights that mark the history of a game, one of those events that seem to have been scripted. 

The night full of twists and turns, striking characters and surprising events seemed to form a much better plot than anyone could have imagined right after the Special Program National Tournament.

It all started when the disappearance of hundreds of thousands of players suddenly began to be noticed and reported in the real world. Players who had been teleported to some dark dimension and were unable to play began shouting about it to the four winds, and logically this soon spread to the virtual world as well.
