Flicked Away

For a brief moment, a shockwave of light blinded all observers, leaving them disoriented and confused.

Then, with a sudden snap that seemed to come from everywhere and nowhere at once, the chaos cleared. 

As vision returned to the stunned onlookers, jaws dropped in surprise, horror, and awe filling every gaze.

Cain stood meters behind the four Great Pillar elders, not a single scratch marring his form. His posture was relaxed, almost bored, as if he had done nothing more strenuous than take a leisurely stroll. It was clear to all present that his casual snap had been the cause of the shockwaves and light clearing away.

The implications of this simple act were not lost on anyone. 

If Cain could dispel the aftermath of such a powerful attack with such ease, then just how vast was the gulf between his true strength and what they had witnessed?

The question hung in the air, unspoken but weighing heavily on every mind present.
