โฆThe Broken Kingโง
The battlefield was silent, nothing but shattered galaxies drifting in eternal darkness. Cleaving stood tall, his jaw fractured, blood and radiant energy dripping from his mouth. Even with his face broken, his posture was unshaken. His aura still flared like a dying sun refusing to collapse.

(spitting fragments of blood and light)
โฆ Xorathโฆ you think a broken jaw ends me? You're a fool.โฆ
His hand rose, trembling but steady with determination. Symbols of ancient law, burning with celestial fire, appeared around him. Slowly, piece by piece, they aligned into a great, glowing stone slab.

โฆThe Spellโง
The cosmic slab ignited, inscriptions glowing with power so ancient even the void shivered. Energy spilled forth like rivers of eternity. Time itself bent as the spell activated, sending chains of light crashing toward Xorath.
ใ๐๐ค๐ง๐๐ฉ๐ใ
(snarling, raising his cloak of shadows)
โฆ Tchโwhat is this trickery?โฆ
The light struck him directly. It bypassed his defenses, stabbing through shadow and bone alike. Xorath screamed as his body seared, cracks running across his chest, his veins glowing as the spell ate into his essence. His cloak shuddered, half dissolved, exposing raw flesh beneath.

(gritting his teeth, voice a growl)
โฆ A cursed spellโฆ You dare use eternity itself against me?โฆ

โฆXorath's Counterโง
Even wounded, Xorath's speed was unmatched. He blurredโno, vanishedโbecoming light itself. Before Cleaving could react, Xorath was already upon him, shadows wrapped around his fist.
ใ๐๐ค๐ง๐๐ฉ๐ใ
(cold and merciless)
โฆ You'll regret showing me your weakness.โฆ
His strike landed. The punch hammered into Cleaving's legโthe one forged like a meteor. Bone cracked. Armor shattered. The mighty king's leg buckled under the force, breaking clean.
ใ๐พ๐ก๐๐๐ซ๐๐ฃ๐ใ
(snarling, body trembling)
โฆ Ghhhhhโdamn you!โฆ
Radiation burst outward from the broken limb, scattering stars like sand. Cleaving staggered, his entire frame trembling under the sheer damage.

โฆThe Trapโง
But suddenlyโฆ his lips curved into a blood-soaked smile.
ใ๐พ๐ก๐๐๐ซ๐๐ฃ๐ใ
(low voice, filled with venom)
โฆ Exactlyโฆ as planned.โฆ
The void quaked. A hidden seal carved into his chest lit up, glowing red and gold. Xorath's eyes widenedโhe sensed it too late.
ใ๐พ๐ก๐๐๐ซ๐๐ฃ๐ใ
(shouting with godlike fury)
โฆ SpellโAssemble CQC!โฆ

โฆThe Crushing Spellโง
The entire battlefield bent inward. Invisible hands, countless and merciless, grasped Xorath from every direction. They locked him in a cage of pure forceโbinding his limbs, his throat, his essence.
Xorath thrashed. His shadows flared, but the cage crushed tighter. Bones splintered. Flesh cracked. The force pressed in like collapsing universes, threatening to crush him into dust.
ใ๐๐ค๐ง๐๐ฉ๐ใ
(choking, blood dripping from his mouth)
โฆ Ghhaaaโฆ damnโฆ itโฆโฆ
The spell was merciless. His ribs shattered, his organs ruptured. Darkness screamed from his body as he fought to resist. But the Assemble CQC was too precise, too absolute.
He could barely breathe. His knees buckled. For the first time in eternityโXorath looked defeated.

โฆThe King's Declarationโง
Cleaving stood tall despite his broken leg and fractured jaw. His chest heaved with pain, but his eyes gleamed with victory. He raised his glowing, blood-stained hand toward the trapped shadow.
ใ๐พ๐ก๐๐๐ซ๐๐ฃ๐ใ
(grinning through broken teeth)
โฆ Once againโฆ you got defeated!โฆ
His laughter echoed across the void, cruel and triumphant, shaking the ruins of galaxies around them.
Xorath's body hung limp inside the crushing spell, shadows leaking away like smoke in the wind. His silence was deafening.
