Four Pillars: Upheaval

Rumble…

At the very moment the Shard of Defiance began to make a move, Valyr felt as if his own perception of time had ground down to a halt.

Whether it was his spear mid-swing, his body pushing all of his strength, mana, and Shadow Energy towards the spear, or the surprised looks on the twins' faces…

All of them were frozen at the moment, with only one thing continuing to move.

Whir…

Rotating on its own axis, the Shard of Defiance gradually began to emanate an ancient aura, filling the entirety of Valyr's mind with the vision of a desolate and war-torn battlefield.

Sensing the great amounts of conflict and bloodlust that allowed this current sight in his mind to arise, Valyr briefly wondered whether he would be forced to stay in such a sight for a long time with how time was frozen.
