The battlefield fell silent until the void roared.
Kaen, consumed and unrecognizable, lunged like a beast unchained. His wings of black flame shredded the air, his claws dragging streaks of oblivion across reality itself.
Khael did not flinch. The wind coiled around him, scales of shimmering emerald and gold reflecting the crescent glow of his transformation. His eyes burned not with madness, but with resolve.
Kaen's claws swept down like a guillotine.
Khael twisted, wind exploding at his heels. A dragon's silhouette rippled behind him as his blade carved a cyclone arc. Sparks of flame met void, the impact splitting the earth beneath their feet.
"RAAAAAH!" Kaen's roar was a storm of agony, voidfire crashing in tidal waves.
Khael gritted his teeth, wings flaring to counter the surge.
"Kaen… I won't let you drown in this curse!"
They clashed again steel and claw, gale and void. Every strike ripped the sky open, echoing across the battlefield like gods at war.
