The following hit produced a thunderclap as the hammer stuck in the cracked stone was turned into a giant nail that shattered the Golem's protective shell and revealed its power core.
The construct had managed to move it out of harm's way in the nick of time. The power core was a spherical purple mana crystal as big as a basketball, with its entire surface covered with blue runes of power.
