Everything that had happened had shaken human civilization to its very core. The residents of the solar system, whether they were living on Gaia Prime, other planets in the solar system, or the Constellation of Cities in outer space, each of them had had their lives terribly disrupted by the ensuing battle between Transcendents.
The people living in the solar system had the highest sense of security. They lived in the most fortified and well-defended solar system in all of human civilization. They were untouchable, or so they thought. That even if there was a war occurring at the very outskirts of human civilization, the flames of war would never ever touch them, even if its economic ripples had already washed over them.
That was why the battle between Transcendents in the solar system had shaken them, not just physically, but also in their psyche. The realization that not even they were safe was a realization that overwhelmed many.
Countless people had already died.
