Michael told Daniel about the Tritan Alliance and its problems. He explained to his brother that he had to go there and take care of all the issues. Daniel told him that he would help, but Michael reassured his brother that everything would be fine. He told him to focus on his body and advance slowly while focusing on his foundation for the time being.
"I will take care of the mess in the Tritan Alliance!"

On his way back to Arx, where he wanted to manifest the Runic Gate, Michael encountered Frederik. They didn't talk much, but Frederik told Michael enough about the situation in the Tritan Alliance to make it clear that it was worse than expected. A civil war broke out, Descendants disappeared, and many died…too many.
The fights of Awakened were one big issue, but a lot worse were the spaceships and the sudden appearance of the traitor organizations such as Dark Heavens.
