Kael's Last Stand

Voltina's trident pierced Kael's chest, and a searing pain coursed through him. His strength waned, but he remained resolute. As the prison world continued to close, the remaining gods were sucked into the vortex, their screams of defiance echoing through the battlefield. All except Voltina, who had managed to escape using the speed of lightning.

"Kael, no!" Mieza cried, struggling to her feet. She stumbled towards him, her eyes wide with horror.

Kael's vision blurred, but he forced himself to focus. "The realm... must be protected," he gasped, his voice barely a whisper. With his last ounce of strength, he raised the scepter and slammed it into the ground one final time.

A brilliant light erupted from the scepter, casting an unbreakable enchantment over its location. "No one... will ever... open it again," Kael whispered, his life slipping away as the prison world closed.
