Counterattack (4) - Flaming spear

'It definitely appears to be spreading. Is the devil still alive?' Ceph asked.

"According to my map, yeah. But I can't think he'll stay sane inside that mess." Watching the carnage playing out beneath them, it reminded Eldrian of his own failures in controlling his auras. And indeed, when he had accessed his bloodline without proper guidance.

There was no doubt that the devil had lost control of the power it had called forth. Whatever it may be, it was rampaging. Seeking more and more to feed on.

Which, sadly, only made it all that more dangerous. Control limited the spiraling chaos of magic. When it was lacking, chaos took over. It might even grow to a point where the gods needed to intervene. Eldrian had caused this before, and he could see this as a clear possibility.
