The Rise of the Black Plain

The three powerful Supremes of the tribe quickly identified what Minos was after.

"The Macabre Horde..." said the man as his gaze became darker.

"Do you want to go after the Macabre Horde?" The level 121 woman asked, for the first time seeing someone with such an absurd goal.

"Yes?" Minos wasn't sure if he really wanted to, but he definitely needed to find this group of undead. But the way the three Supremes changed, their expressions caught his attention. "I don't know anything about them. I just saw them surround the place I'm looking for."

"In that case, it might be interesting for you to look for other methods of getting there..." advised the man who had failed to reach Minos twice.

But Ibbe realized Minos wouldn't do that and said. "Since you don't seem to know what the Macabre Horde is, let me explain it to you before we talk about its location."

Minos nodded in agreement, curious about that group of dead. But he could already see that his wife had nothing to do with such a horde, at least not now.

Ibbe explained, "No one knows exactly how the Macabre Horde came to be. It has existed for at least hundreds of thousands of years. It's so old that some of Uzira's oldest Supremes always heard about it, even in their childhoods.

But almost everyone agrees on one thing about the Macabre Horde. It is linked to the Awakening Peak, a location on the west coast of the continent, the strongest area in Uzira, but also the most dangerous and darkest place in our world.

Those who die near the Awakening Peak tend to have their rest disturbed and sooner or later join the horde. The horde grows stronger as time goes by.

But despite being frightening, it has a rather peculiar behavior. The undead follow a pattern around Awakening Peak. They hardly ever leave the vicinity of the area, so for a long time they were simply overlooked.

However, this has allowed them to grow numerous and strong. Currently, the Macabre Horde has at least tens of thousands of undead. If we had the absurd plan of stopping them, we'd need every one of the continent's high level Supremes and it still wouldn't be certain that we'd be able to eliminate them..."

"As you can see, they're a tremendous challenge," said the man, looking at Minos with strangeness on his face.

The woman next to Ibbe said, "The worst thing is if they deviate their movements a little and reach areas of living beings. They become brutal, even more insane than they look. They act like hungry animals until they destroy all the surrounding life. Only when they clear an area of a few dozen square kilometers, do they return to their normal, their crusade around the Awakening Peak."

Ibbe finished, "That makes them doubly dangerous for you. As well as being dangerous to any living beings, they are guarded by some of the strongest of Uzira's sovereign force." She narrowed her eyes at that. "If you get close to them, the leaders of the continent will notice you and deal with you differently from us."

Minos understood this last part well, but he couldn't help feeling curious about this phenomenon altogether. "I'll keep that in mind... But I'm curious to know why the continent's forces let a group of undead become so large.

Can you tell me? It seems to me from your description that this group is a problem for Uzira."

"And indeed it is." Ibbe nodded positively, looking at the white-haired man who was at least twice her height. "But it's not that simple. Necromancy runs in the blood of the royal family. How could the leaders of Uzira let the representation of their family be destroyed?

For a long time, the undead were just symbols of the royal family's power, a symbol that no one wanted to tarnish or destroy. When the Macabre Horde first appeared, it was protected. But over the years, it grew and got out of control...

In short, not everything is so simple. Reason doesn't always solve all problems." The woman shook her head as she sighed.

Even members of her tribe had seen no problems with the Macabre Horde at a time when the group could have been controlled. But now she realized the mistake made by the sovereigns of the continent.

She added, "I wouldn't doubt it if the group even has high-level Supremes in it. So I'd like to recommend you choose another plan. As much as I don't know you, tragedy awaits those who go over to the Macabre Horde. Choose another path and live your life, Minos."

"I appreciate the opportunity, but my fate is not so easy to predict," Minos said confidently. "Where can I find the Macabre Horde?"

The three of them looked at him in silence, each of them thinking how absurd and daring he was.

He was certainly very talented and capable of doing impressive things. They could sense that. But this unbridled confidence could get him killed quickly.

But in any case, Minos was not an ally, not even a close friend of their tribe.

Ibbe answered him after a few moments of consideration. "Travel west. Go in search of the Awakening Peak. You'll eventually find the trail of death or the watchers of the Macabre Horde."

Minos looked in the direction showed and prepared to leave, the surrounding space vibrating in such a way that the three Supremes moved away from him.

"Thank you for the information. If we meet again, we'll have a longer, friendlier conversation."

After thanking them, Minos left, crossing space towards the west, leaving a trail of special chaos.

The three most important members of the tribe stayed behind as they watched Minos' speedy departure, seeing his uncanny ability to move, capable of making even Uzira's stable space deform amid his movements.

If he could do that without even showing a great expenditure of energy, then his capabilities were even greater if he got into serious combat.

"Yon made a wise decision." Ibbe muttered before returning to her home, leaving that problem to the fools who would try to get in his way.
