Everything shook. The staircases became unstable as mana traced lines that spread far beyond the square.

Cracks opened on the already damaged surfaces and expanded to create an array of large chunks. The entire city seemed ready to fall, and the audience held their breath, hoping to delay that catastrophe.

Khan, the Nele, and those able to sense the mana under them knew that nothing could prevent what was coming. The city continued to shake, and the floor screamed as its metal bent and shattered. It only took the fall of a minute piece to destroy the frail balance and cause a chain reaction.

The square caved in, and the same went for the staircases. The buildings past the area also crumbled before falling through the floor. The Nak's hand had replicated the attack unleashed in the hidden lab, but its range went far past anything Khan had ever witnessed.
