"Before the towers fell, before everything was consumed by darkness..."

Leo Astralis whispered to himself while traversing through the rubble of the ancient structure. 

His body bore the scars of survival, bite marks that throbbed against the coarse, blood-stiffened fabric of his clothing.

"...I wonder what the world was like."

After humanity failed to complete the Tower almost 700 years ago in time, it exploded, spreading monsters all over the word.

A singular message urged Leo to escape, yet it was short lived as was he was caught like an animal in a trap.

They all looked confused at the talking monster. Leo scratched his head and thought to himself.

'Why the hell does she have a name?'

Her will to fight was so thin that they didn't even need to lift a finger to make her forfeit as she threw the dagger away and covered her face.

All of them looked confused at what had just taken place, a monster had just given up.

[Gloppy, do you think they could be from a scenario gate?]

[Most likely, their leader could speak.]

That would explain why she had a name, unlike all the other monsters they had killed so far in this gate.
