The series of bodily explosions greatly affected the people of the Imperial City. Although with many of the Rui Lin Army soldiers' reassurance, the people were somewhat appeased, for those who witnessed the explosion first hand, it was a gory sight that will haunt them for the rest of their lives.
Many of the eye witnesses took ill from the shock from the frightful sight that very afternoon.

All physicians within the city were sought out, but none could identify the cause.
Burning up with the fever, many were soon bedridden, not knowing that they had been poisoned.
