The Shadow Of Despair.

He is not a kind person normally so he is not going to hold back at all. He certainly wouldn't hold back when success in the rite of passage determines which divine abilities he can get. So he continued to accelerate towards the sea of despair. 

Then he saw something that drew his attention. He saw the shadow of the platform on the ground. There are some people underneath that shadow looking up at him. Some are looking at him with hope while others are looking at him with hatred. 

Some people hate him while others consider him their salvation. But all of them are under the shadow of the platform. Therefore they are all under the thumb of the Supreme Alliance.
