As the dragon's fire reached Arcaine, he raised up a barrier of holy power to defend against the attack. But even though he was protected, he could still feel the blistering heat that was trying to burn him. The attack only took a minute but it felt like eternity for him.
After the fire was gone, everything below the hero turned to ashes and only he and his subordinate were standing. They could already hear the hysterical shouts of the people below. They were terrified and in a state of panic.
The casualties only rose because of the appearance of a dragon. The military and the mages had their hands full as they tried to evacuate as many as they could.
Ginehart couldn't believe that after the fogs and those monsters disappeared a dragon would take their place. He thought that they were already safe but something more dangerous came.
