The Icebound Expanse

A blinding white light swallowed my vision, my entire body feeling as though it was being compressed and then expanded all at once. The sheer cold cut through even Ingi's barrier, creeping into my very bones.

And then we landed.

I gasped, breath misting in the freezing air as my boots hit solid ground. My limbs trembled from the sheer, unnatural cold, and I instinctively reached for my core to channel warmth.

The sensation of oneness was gone.

The Unison: Divine Exclusive Skill had fully unraveled.

Fafnir, Ingi, Veydris, and Zarathorak stood beside me, all in their respective human forms. Their eyes darted across the landscape, quickly assessing the situation.

We were no longer in the Veil of Everfrost.
