Fighting Zaphreal (6) - Miracle's explanation

"H-he di-did it?" Constantin struggled to get the words out. Disbelief causing him to stumble over those three simple words. 

Along with everyone else, he stared towards the stage. When the barrier had disappeared and Eldrian with it, he had wondered what was going on. However, there simply was not enough time to ponder things before the following development. 

Just a few seconds later, darkness arrived again. This time like a tsunami, spreading from where Eldrian had been. Engulfing everything in sight. The darkness did not remain long, dispersing further and further until it disappeared from sight. And what was left was a world devoid of life. 

All the grass and plants had withered. The same had happened to Zaphreal. His corpse lay upon the withered field. Yet, Eldrian was still nowhere in sight.
