Memories had flashed into Murkel's head of a meeting that had occurred a while ago, a change that had happened within the Dark Faction that no one was aware of.
By this point, Murkel had gained strength and notoriety. He had challenged a number of the Clan Heads across the Dark Faction and had bested them all. All apart from the top four clans that currently led the Dark Faction.
Some thought the Dark Faction was weakening after the loss of the Noctis Clan, and there were rumors that the Light Faction was planning an attack to eliminate them.
It was an extremely tense time for those in the Dark Faction, and of all things, the Erupting Fist Clan being led by this genius warrior had asked for a meeting between all four of them.
Out on a mountain top, there was a stone temple right at the top. It was abandoned and not a single person had visited it or maintained it. It was the perfect place for a meeting to take place so that no one was to learn of what had occurred.
