The sky over Alden was still blue—still held its returning charm from the previous day.Still beautiful and calm.
And that was the cruelest part.
Because beneath that sky, war was not slowing. It was tightening like a noose.
With the second invasion of Igumi now underway, Tsuki and the soldiers of Memento prepare to change tactics. This time, they won't win through brute strength or overwhelming force.
They'll win through infiltration.
Quiet steps and hidden tunnels. A knife in the dark before a sword can ever be raised.
But Igumi is not just another district. Not just another wall to climb, or another battle to survive. Beneath its beauty—beneath its lantern festivals, koi ponds, and peaceful streets—something rotten has been buried for far too long.
And Memento is about to dig it up.
Below the lies and deception, the truth of the war begins to reveal itself. Truths hidden within the Igumi Archives—records the APC never wanted touched, histories that were rewritten, and names that should not exist.
And when those truths surface… everything changes.
Because the war was never just APC versus Memento.
It was always something deeper. Something older.
And with the past finally clawing its way into the light, Memento finds itself caught between forces far beyond rebellion—caught between prophesized powers that could decide the fate of Alden once and for all.
Not with victory—but with termination.
