The uninhabited sky island that the annihilative rays of the railgun disintegrated into oblivion was just the beginning.
In no more than five minutes just after that, the destructive rays, without fail, landed on another portion of Flenor Island's sprawling archipelago.
Everything it touched was obliterated to oblivion in similarly destructive and disintegrative fashion without warning.
Monumental buildings, popular tourist spots, the Allied Islands Central Government Headquarters, among many others were reduced to instant subatomic dusts.
And of course, the casualties could not be prevented by any means as many innocent people, unprepared to meet their maker today, inevitably did, their numbers, fortunately or unfortunately, still in the few thousands.
Even the bodies of these innocent souls could not be recovered as they too, just like the surroundings they were obliterated with, left not even a single speck of their previous existence behind.
