The moment my feet touched the earth, blood rose into my throat.
I turned my head and spat a mouthful of crimson onto the shattered ground.
I wiped the corner of my mouth and frowned slightly. The injuries weren't surprising. I had pushed my body far beyond what it was currently capable of enduring, especially when I had used the full manifestation of my Domain and then forced the Null Core and Dawn Core to contain an existence as powerful as Viserys. My body was repairing itself, but the process would take time.
I was about to take my first step toward the others when a violent disturbance suddenly came from within the Dawn Core.
I stopped.
Deep inside my inner world, the black ocean churned violently.
A gigantic claw suddenly erupted from its surface and swung upward, tearing through the air as though attempting to escape the isolated region entirely. The surrounding mountains trembled beneath the force, and billions of trapped souls screamed as the ocean surged around them.
