By the time they reached the Hospital, the Heroes of Light would find the place to be quite desolate. All the lights were out and most of the small team taking care of the patients instead of celebrating like everyone else could be found dead. Their blood was painting walls and furniture, their bodies scattered around as if an immense force had grasped them before murdering them brutally. A few had survived by hiding and the patients who were hiding too or who were still sleeping seemed to be safe for the most part. And should they go to the room where the characters in Crystal Stasis were kept, they would find nothing. No one in crystal stasis, no one in the room at all save for the corpses of two nurses.
But the Heroes of Light probably did not even need to go that far to realize what had happened. As they roamed the corridors, odds were they'd fall on familiar figures: the Heroes of Light who should have been in Crystal Stasis. Needless to say, they looked different. Their movements were slow and broken, their steps uncoordinated as if they were drunk or not really in control of their bodies. It seemed as though they could fall over any seconds, yet it never happened. Some of them kept their head down; some lolled it from side to side. And while their clothes were perfectly normal, as they looked up it revealed the truth of their nature: their skin was pale blue and their eyes a bright violet, nearly glowing red as they looked emptily before them. Dark shadows surrounded their eyes and faint, blue veins could be seen on their skins. Finally, they weren't emitting any sounds and their expression was nearly perfectly neutral, eerily serious.
And while all they did was walk at a slow pace, they were extremely dangerous. They were the ones who killed all these people in the Hospital, and if they managed to get close enough to more people, they'd either rip them apart with their bare hands or use powerful magic made of a dark purple aura to grievously wound those before them or destroy what blocked their path—And sometimes instantly kill. Those who used specific weapons or spells back when they were in their homeworlds will sometimes use them in this sad state—Except all of their effects will be dangerous enough to instantly kill. Trying to reason with them is pointless as they won't emit a single noise nor react upon seeing familiar faces. Attacking them isn't recommended as well as they don't feel pain and can repeatedly use their otherworldly powers to wear down anything that dare oppose them. They can be defeated, but this will take a lot of time and those fighting will most likely be wounded or worse, die.
Of course, while at the start they're only in the Hospital, after ten minutes or so they'll be roaming the city… If Moggle Mog XIV isn't stopped, it will be a disaster not only for this place, but for the world.
