AFTERMATH

---

 

Those that dug deep into the rumors found themselves standing before a minor Black Falcon settlement in the middle of Alstalsia's land. After making an agreement on bulldozing throughout the terrorist organization's forces, they managed to overcome their adversaries and save prisoners that were trapped within the area. In the end of their journey, they managed to find the white haired girl with gold eyes mentioned in hearsay...

 

 

However, in the middle of the chaos, they learned about the existence of a purple mutation of 'grief parasites' named 'Dusk Zero' by the terrorist organization. It is said to be a powerful creation that greatly enhances the power of its host, at the cost of severely damaging its body and general lifespan. Its existence was confirmed as they encountered a pair of Reapers in armor empowered by the mutation itself, and battled for their lives.

 

In addition to that, it was revealed that there seems to be an odd split in the Black Falcon's ranks, due to the fact that a First Squad Guard they once held captive escaped with the assistance of one of their experiments, as well as the stolen power of Zero. They are currently still chasing after the escapee experiment and will, more than likely, not stop doing that any time soon.

 

A few of the prisoners claimed to witness eccentric behavior in some of their henchmen, such as pretending to obey orders and then perform another task. It had been mentioned that some of them had also seen certain figures wearing the symbol of a Black Hallowed Cross turned upside down.

 

Is there more to Black Falcon than meets the eye? What were those prisoners for, if anything? Does Zero have a greater purpose beyond serving as another tool to aid in destruction of the empire? Who were those 'Executioners' that harbored the power of the mutated Dusks? Is there another group working with them, or against them?

 

Many questions were born that day, and only time would truly answer them, for better or worse.
