A mighty double explosion followed by an earthquake shakes everything in as people were shocked this was slightly frequent,so most ignored it and went on with their daily lives.

Some houses were rocked by the shake increasingly stronger. Around them, furniture, vases,trinkets, chairs and the mirror fall on the floor.

Then white flakes are slowly falling over the beach. The spectacle is surreal. The Flakes fall all around them.Many takes some of them in the palm of their hands. It crumbles between their fingers,what they didn't know was these volcanoes were also sending out poisonous fumes into the air and it was slowly making it's way down,this made the air unbearable to even Dragon's,if they take it in for too long.

People has gathered in the streets, staring and enjoying the spectacle, commenting on what they see in small groups. Some try to catch the ash that starts to cover the cobblestone, bantering

Rhevas who in his castle seeing this was happy smirked and said"The god must be giving us a sign that we win against those pretender Dragonlords."

The sycophants who close to him smiled and replied"yes, you are right Mexares may be blessing us."

Some of shop owners collect pieces of their merchandise fall during the earthquake. Others keep on going at their business as nothing has happened.It is busy, yet no one seems to be in a hurry. In Valyria, everyday life goes on.

But the an explosion is heard and people looks to the fourteen fires and they slowly steps back and the so called fourteen fires all volcanoes have there top has exploded sending a gigantic cloud as black as ink in the blue summer sky.

Now doubt and panic started as people run through the city, the more obscureness increases, the smoke spreading over. Streets are rife of ash that gathers on the ground and penetrates everywhere.People pack their stuff on carriages. The horses,whinnying,are getting mad. Unending tremors go on unabated, shaking buildings and people.An earthquake The soldiers stagger, trying to stay up, when the house by them falls apart. Big stones collapse, smashing two of them.

This is hell as the some start to see the effect the fumes and starts to cough.They holds their throat and heads for a water,some went to the fountain.

There's no water running.The fumes are effecting everyone and many Dragon Lords,who were fearing for their lives tried to flee with on there Dragons,but the result was not nice as either they are killed by toxic fumes in the air or are rocks mixed with liquid lava start to fall around from the sky and explode.Some people who struck by one of them becomes a human torch.

Several houses are now ablaze and collapsing. Broad sheets of fire leap into the dark sky,the darkness amplifies over the city.

No matter how much Dragon lords or people tried fourteen volcanoes erupting together caused flaming hailstones to be everywhere in the sky making it a no go area.

Those that bravely flew their dragons to try and avoid the hailstones,where again brought down by them.

The all the 14 volcanoes roar is now deafening.In the streets of Valyria, and although the burning houses, it is now complete darkness, just like a room when it's shut up and all the lights put out.

All around, people just can hear shrieks of women, screams of the children and the shouts of men. Some call for their children, their parents.

An earthquake roars and twitters all and everyone around As some soldiers stumble on the sand, kind of small tsunami unfurls on the beach, destabilizing several soldiers.

The houses in flames, people running anywhere,screaming, praying for the Valyrian gods, and some dying.

Many ran to the ports,but once again fireballs are falling from the sky, whistling.As they touch the ground, they explode killing many.

Nothing is safe people trying to get into the ships faced another problem,which was the waves run extremely high and boisterous caused by the Earth quakes.

All the ships are incredibly shaken and none made it out alive through the dangerous seas.

A gigantic flow of clouds is running down like an avalanche from all the Volcanic slopes with amazing speeds, devouring everything on its way in a deafening thunder.

Valyrian gazes at the cloud coming to them, terrified. As the cloud swoops down on the city wall, the people are instantly burned and turned to ashes.

The pyroclastic surge travels across the streets at great speeds burns, knocks down, shatters, buries, or carries away nearly all objects and structures on its way.The Searing ash insinuates itself in each cranny, hole and covers everything. The more the flow advances, the more is gathering rock and woody debris, and increases its sordid

power.

As the thunder approaches,Rhevas in shock mutters"Have the gods really abandoned us."and raises his head to see the surge of hot, dry rock fragment and gases.

Many Valyrian's pray to their gods,but no results,

the cloud envelops the harbor and inflames the boats and ships by the piers. The flow now covers the sea and large columns of steam are swept away along with the ashes.The pyroclastic surge reaches the seaside and passes in front of the grotto, whistling and spreading all over the

beach and the cliff.

The whole beach is covered with a steaming thin blanket of white finer-grained ash and cool lava fragments.The Volcanic activity would continue even four centuries after the original eruptions, with the water often turning poisonous and giving off fumes that can kill.
