The Five-Hour Deadline

Five Hours to Faction Wars Victory

The roughly five hours remaining before the War Mage team holding the castle wins Faction Wars outright.

Story so far

As the team prepares Donut's tattoo, Carl notes they now have about five hours before the The War Mages team holding The Castle would win Faction Wars. It is the hard clock the entire War Crime plan is racing against.

The pressure compounds with The Lava Flow rising toward level 50 and Li Na's weakening hold on Harpocrates, who is fighting Conscription and needs to be saved for the fight against Eris. Li Na twice urges the group to hurry.

Role

The countdown that forces the team to accept the horrific plan.
