Auron and his Omans freed Afena from the Darkness in the depths of Terra, but it came at the cost of Benoit's life, and Addicus being critically injured by Fazon. As retaliation, Auron knew the Darkness would inevitably send its hollowed minions to the surface to take the lives of as many Humans as possible. How will Auron and his Omans protect the Humans against the masses of the hollowed minions? The Darkness needs a vessel to transfer its power into, and is now in search of a new Dark Bride, to finally defeat the Omans and extinguish the core of Terra. But who will the Darkness see fit to become its Dark Bride?
