[ Floor 21 will now undergo a new Floor Raid, courtesy of the True Elites Faction.
All individuals who are not part of the True Elites Alliance or Native borns of Floor 21, will now be sent back to Floor Zero of the tower– ]
A floor wide announcement was made by the floor administrator after Karna's victory as he removed all the other armies and adventurers unaffiliated with the True Elites Guild from within Floor 21, leaving behind only the True Elites and the fighters from the Church Of Cowards behind, as they had formed an alliance with the Elites.
"Oh you managed to secure the floor raid rights? How delightful–" said the leader of the cowards, as he moved forward and shook hands with Karna, congratulating him for his win.
"My name is Zane. We might as well be acquainted now since we are going to be fighting together" said Zane, as he gestured for someone to quickly bring up his faction's pre-drawn war plans.
"I'm sure you have final war plans of your own, guildmaster Karna, however, since we are going to be working together now. Let me show you our plans quickly as well, so that we can perhaps choose the best plan of attack" said Zane as he set up a table and quickly began to lay war plans on-top of it.
Looking around, Karna gestured for Neatwit and Rocky's unit to go ahead and start with Plan D, while he began to take a look at the war plans drawn by the Church Of Cowards.
*Thump*

"Eh? What? What's going on? Why is such a large and strong portion of your army branching out?" Asked Zane as he seemed to wonder why a large portion of the Elite army, some 20,000+ soldiers began branching out all of a sudden.
"My apologies mister Zane, however, like I said before. Our number one goal in this war is not to secure the floor master's privilege but rather save one of our own.
Those who have branched out are our rescue troopers.
They have a mission of their own here, which is completely unrelated to the war" Karna explained, as listening to his explanation Zane shrugged his shoulders and let the matter be.
The equipment that they carried to this battlefield was weapons that were usually mounted in the dwarf capital of Dwargon and were weapons that were not for sale for anyone except the dwarves. .net
For the coward army to have their hands on such a destructive arsenal of weapons was an unexpected boon for the Elites's cause to win this war, and Karna was hence more than happy to take the lead and charge when the situation called for it, because the situation was already way better than he initially expected it to be.
'The start of this war had been great on my side Rocky, I hope it will be the same on yours as well' Karna prayed, as he gave the orders for the Elite army to march and hold the battle lines alongside the coward army, while they set up their large war weapons.

( Meanwhile Rocky )
Rocky and Neatwit walked side by side without speaking a word to one another, while Buhara and Erin tagged along behind the duo playfully bantering.
"Are your friends always this cheerful? I'm not saying that it's bad, but they might be walking into an ambush that kills them within 20 seconds.
Can't they be more mature and enjoy their last moments in this universe in peace?" Neatwit asked, sounding annoyed as the four of them approached the large oak tree about 200 meters from the farmers cabin where Rocky was scheduled to meet Sophia.
"We have full faith in Sir Rocky, Vice Guildmaster Neatwit.
With him around we won't die" Erin said cheerfully, as somehow Neatwit could not find a gloomy retort to that comment.
"Alright, this is my marker here.... Off you three go... all the best" Neatwit said, slapping the butts of the three kids as he silently prayed for their success.
"Don't worry, I have a good feeling about this one" Reassured Rocky, as he confidently walked towards the farmers cabin, out in the desolate woods.
'A good feeling?' Neatwit wondered as he climbed the old oak tree and sat down there assuming a vantage point.
'I hope you have more than that kid, because all our lives depend on you today' Neatwit hoped, as he watched Rocky, Erin and Buhara slowly disappear into the small cabin ahead.
