The human domain was illuminated in a radiant purple light so blinding that even the paragons watching the scene had to shield their eyes from its rays.
Then came the shockwave. But surprisingly, it wasn't violent. Instead, it felt like a wave of light air washing over them, gentle.
The humans, Evolari, and Nullite fell utterly silent as the blinding light began to fade, unveiling a dense haze that cloaked the entire domain in a shroud.
A burst erupted from the center, scattering the mist in every direction. Then… they saw everything.
Ozeroth, cloaked in a blinding purple glow, hovered calmly in the air, twin hammers gripped loosely in his hands. But that wasn't what seized their attention.
In front of him, where the towering wooden beast had stood moments ago, was an endless fissure, a yawning chasm that split the earth and stretched kilometers into the horizon.
No one spoke. Not a word. Even the paragons' eyes trembled as the truth sank in.
One strike.
