Nora's POV
"Ignis," I scream, hurling my hands forward and launching a blazing fireball straight at War. His crimson stallion skids to a halt and rears up, but the Horseman stays firmly planted in his saddle. He's mere steps away from our first protective barrier. The horse pounds the earth with his hooves as War raises that massive sword again, bringing it crashing down against my warding with a bone-rattling clang that tears through my entire being. The metallic shriek is so piercing it feels like a blade slicing through my skull. The sound amplifies, joined by the anguished screams of hundreds of souls crying out for salvation.
