The God And The Wolf [1]
The Morningstar mansion, which is usually seen as a symbol of peace, justice, and security, was now a scene of utter destruction.
Its front walls were caved in multiple spots, while other spots were cracked beyond repair.
The front garden, once a place of lush beauty, bore deep craters, fissures, and unsightly cracks, marring the landscape.
The once majestic trees had been reduced to charred or shattered remnants by fire and frost.
Fountains and pools now lay shattered, their tranquil waters spilling and spurting out in disarray.
Several wisps of smoke rose, but the most attention-grabbing was an enormous black mushroom cloud which was a result of one of Lucas' explosions.
And, like a menacing vengeful demon, Lucas stood at the heart of a deep crater, firmly gripping a silver-haired half-elf by the throat.
