Unforeseen Consequence

There was a bitter expression on her face as she looked at the devastation she caused. Ming Yue stood by the edge and quietly thought, contemplating her place. Her counterpart said nothing, Xue Yue was silent now. Perhaps, she would let the young woman think alone, allowing her to think things through. 

There was a bit of smoke billowing out from the burnt roots, several massive craters all around the spires, biting into the plateaus. Such an attack was enough to blow a mountain to pieces. 

But all of that power had amounted to her destroying just a thousandth of these roots. 

The craters only reveal that they were far deeper and denser than she had believed. The question was how far did they go? Does it spread as far as the Savage Lands reach? Or was it less than that?

These questions slowly dug their way into her mind, adding to the hill of concerns she had.
