Guillotines on a Snowy Night

When military banners of the three central divisions appeared on the battleground, the fight lost its suspense.

Ever since the founding of the Thirteen Divisions in the Avalon of Five Elements, the three central divisions were the most unusual and mysterious divisions. The direct subordinates of the Elders Guild, these three central divisions were Surveillance, Judgement, and Dread. The outside world had little understanding of them.

They only knew that Surveillance was good at obtaining news as they had countless spies. Judgement was in charge of trials and convictions. Only very specific crimes would require the involvement of Judgement. Dread was the most mysterious group, and news about them spread the least.

A peculiar thing was that the three central divisions were not in the Avalon of Five Elements, but defended the Old Territory instead.

Why did they do that? Which part of the Old Territory? No one knew.
