The Crumbling Tower [Pt 1]

The sound of Paul's boots crunching against the debris-laden ground echoed in the silence as he and Lilith advanced toward the Crumbling Tower.

The sky around them was an angry swirl of storm clouds, punctuated by fiery streaks of falling stars that illuminated the devastation below.

They had both flown to the Tower at top speed.

It was an unprecedented feat given the obstacles on the way.

If anyone down currently looked up to the Crumbling Tower, they would think they were hallucinating given the two figures they saw.

After all, no one that had attempted to reach the Tower before now was alive. The debris and hailstone killed them before they could come close.

If they were close to the scene, they would be terrified at the aura and strength the bigger figure possessed and emanated.

There was the matter of the flying objects around too amidst the flying debris.

Drones.
