The Next Death

The primordial beast, reared before the shimmering shield of light that protected Glenn's territory. With a mighty roar, it unleashed a blast of cosmic energy, far more powerful than any it had cast before. The inhabitants of the territory watched in horror as the shield, their last line of defense, began to fracture.

The shield, a dome of radiant light that had stood as a beacon of safety, now shuddered under the beast's assault. Cracks spread across its surface like spiderwebs, each line glowing ominously as if filled with the beast's malevolent energy. The once-steady hum of the shield's power turned into a high-pitched whine, a sound of distress as it struggled to hold against the onslaught.
