The aftermath settled over Kaelthar like a shroud. The fires still burned, casting flickering orange light across the ruins, but the sounds of battle had faded.
Adam flew low over the dying city, his serpentine form casting a long shadow across the rubble. His wings, still tattered, beat steadily, carrying him toward the edge of Kaelthar where the buildings thinned and the wilderness began.
Behind him, the city crumbled.
The system notifications began to scroll across his vision, a cascade of blue light that he couldn't ignore, couldn't dismiss. They came in waves, each one adding to the weight of what he had done.
