The explosion tore the palace apart, with the side facing Diana's take being obliterated, while the other was slashed in half. As for the two women, it was too soon to tell, as the dust blinded their vision. The walls crumbled around them as the upper floors fell to the ground.

Alaric witnessed everything, but he needed to take cover inside the ice dome Diana had created for him to stay alive. The destruction was so great that he could hear the screams of those on the upper floors as they fell, their bodies hitting the ground. An awakener would survive, but a normal human would die.

Once everything settled, Alaric rushed out to look for Diana. He scanned the battlefield for her figure but found no one. He rushed over the rubble and the moaning people. Essences scattered on the ground from the hall above, making the place a chaotic mess.
