ARIA POV
The ground gave way under my feet.
When I jumped back, a huge crack in the ground let out a wave of cold darkness that made my teeth chatter. There was no messing around with the Void Walker boss now that he was here.
"Everyone get back!" I yelled at my friends. But my voice got lost in the terrible sound of the world falling apart.
The sky got dark over us. Not dark at night, but empty black. It looked like the stars and moon had been removed with a big eraser. The strange purple glow around the Void Walker as he came out of the crack in the ground was the only source of light.
He looked like a man, but wrong. His edges kept changing, like he was made of smoke that couldn't decide what shape it wanted to be. His eyes were holes in his face that showed nothing but darkness.
"So," he said, and his voice came from everywhere at once. "You're the little gods who think they can stop me."
