Meet with the gods
The stillness of Limbo shattered in an instant.
Boom!
The ground trembled violently, throwing up a plume of dust and sending cracks spidering across the earth. Zafron and the women snapped their heads toward the sound, their hearts pounding.
"Is it them?" Calista asked, her hand instinctively going to her weapon.
Aurelia's eyes narrowed, scanning the swirling chaos ahead. "It has to be. They've come back for us."
Before Zafron could reply, a streak of red light tore through the air, its glow brighter than the sun in this dim realm.
Vroom!
The weapon—a massive, blazing spear—shot toward Zafron with impossible speed. He barely had time to process the danger before it slammed into him.
Pain exploded in his chest as the impact launched him off his feet. The force was so intense that he felt the wind knocked from his lungs, his body hurtling through the air like a ragdoll.
The world became a blur.
