373 Nightmare (2/2)
Luna was startled upon hearing the beeping sound of her badge, she sighed and excused herself to receive the message sent to her. Upon opening the message, she saw that it came from Paul, it reads:
'Holy crap, guys. I just got a really scary nightmare.'
Luna's eyes widened at this point. Paul's message was sent to everyone in the team minus Raven, which means that if her guesses were right, then…
'You had a nightmare too? That's weird.' - Ellen.
'I also got one.' - Mark
'Me too.' - Anne
Luna's guess was on point. She then sent a message to them as well.
'It's not just us. Even the Royal Guards received the same. I think this is a sign. Let's inform Big Brother, though if my hunch is correct, then there will be no need for that as well. Just come here ASAP.'

”So…” Balmung frowned as he drummed his fingers in the desk. ”Aside from a few minor details, we all had experienced the same nightmare. Can everyone confirm this?”
The crowd around him nodded. Not only Raven's team was here, the rest of the Golden Knights were here as well as some of the influential people.
Even the weakened King Alexander and Queen Elizabeth was here too.
Every single one of them confirmed that they experienced the same dream just like the rest except for some minor details, pertaining towards their deaths.
The atmosphere inside the King's office was solemn. They weren't expecting this kind of thing to happen at all. It was a strange phenomena but no one dared to slight it anymore.
If it was only two people who dream about this, then it might still be considered as a coincidence, but when 10 or more people dream about the same thing at the same time? That could no longer be a 'mere coincidence' anymore.
”Could it be a sign?” Luna said after thinking to herself, catching the attention of the rest. ”I mean, I have some speculations, but I can't be certain.”
”Speak.” Balmung urged.
Luna cleared her throat and said:
”I think what we saw was glimpse of the future.” She stated, drawing mixed reactions from the crowd. Thankfully no one interrupted her so she continued:
”I don't know when but I think someone's giving us a warning here. There's no doubt that we all saw a demonic beasts gathering and marching. So that means that we will face another Beast Horde, but at the scale that we've never experienced before. I'm talking about millions here, and their numbers are growing.”
Most people inside the room started sweating nervously, some swallowed hard upon hearing her deductions but none said a word.
”We also saw men in black robes. That to me, would be the forces of the Black Curtain Guild. We all know that some of the beast hordes that we experienced in the past were their doing. So it's not far-fetched to say that they might be gearing up for the final clash.”
Many people sucked in cold air as she revealed this. Her words were now starting to make sense to them, but it brought them no joy.
”Whatever the result of this battle - no, this war, will be catastrophic.” Luna paused and took in a deep breath. She then revealed her final piece.
”What worries me, is that deformed human we all saw.” Her voice was a bit shaken at this point. ”If the vision and my guessed were all on point, then that creature was something that will bring us the biggest headache.”
”I'll admit it. Even with all of us here, I don't see any chances of us winning against that thing.” Luna said, ”Whatever that thing is, its repulsive aura and its strength is something that cannot be measured.”
”That thing reminds me of the creature that Avi told us a while ago.” She stated, ”He called it Pale Bastard. And judging from what we saw, I'd say it fits the name accurately.”
The room descended in a very tense atmosphere as she finished talking, all of them had conflicting emotions about her deductions but none of them could say that she's wrong since everything she said made sense.
”How I wish I am wrong.” Luna sighed, ”But no matter what happens, I think we should start preparing ourselves for the worst.”
