The World Descends Into Chaos Part 1
Sometimes I wonder if things happen for a reason. I wonder if it is because of the things I have done in my life that things happen in such a way that I am left without many options. I wonder if it is because of this that I am stuck here now, as I step out of the palace a large beam of light incinerates half of the lower capital, firing straight up into the sky turning night into day as my barrier shatters into dust.
The light was like an anatomic bomb going off as it rose high into the air leaving behind absolute nothingness. There was no shock wave. There was no wind. Only the sound of the shatter of my barrier and the scene of millions of lives disappearing right before my eyes.
What did the people of my empire do to deserve such an end? What did they do to be killed for no reason? The people I worked with for so long at my factories were now gone. Tryu and his sister. The entire east side slums, were gone in the blink of an eye.
