Naya’s heart pounded in her chest as she unleashed her magic, a brilliant beam of energy slicing through the torrent of shadows rushing toward them. The air crackled with power, the intensity of the battle shaking the walls of Nerron’s twisted fortress. Every breath she took was thick with tension, the weight of what was at stake pressing down on her shoulders.Nerron stood at the center of the chaos, a dark figure on his throne, his eyes glowing with twisted satisfaction.

The roar of the Thunder-Splitting Dragon echoed through the shattered chamber, shaking the very walls of reality.
