It happened so suddenly, as if it came out of nowhere. A loud crackling sound shook the whole dungeon like a thrown jar. The ground cracked and trees were pulled out from the roots. The palace rubble and loose boulders flew around like heavy-weight confetti, and the combination of everything created a deafening sound that almost ruptured their eardrums.
In a whirlwind of events, Zein felt his shoulders grabbed and someone enveloped him in a protective hug as he was flung back. Their body flew across the dungeon at a speed that left no chance to think properly, and only stopped after they crashed against an invisible wall.
"Ugh--"
It was a force enough to break some bones and incur internal injuries, but Zein felt surprisingly alright. Except for some dizziness, he didn't feel anything broken or wrong with his body. When he opened his eyes after rolling on the ground, Senan was hovering above him.
