"Night without end, shadows consume," Apollo gazed at them with a sympathetic look and uttered, "Eclipse."
Instantly, the dimensional pocket was plunged into an unnatural, impenetrable darkness, as if the night itself had descended to swallow it!
Some races had no problems with this as they had their own ways of sensing without light like Vibronoxians', but the majority were thrown into chaos!
"I can't see! I can't see my own hands!"
Antsy and concerned calls resounded in the area as everyone tried to make sense of the situation.
Without being asked, Lumina and the Gleamkin leader ordered their troops to share their light across the field to reduce the soldiers' agitation.
Alas, the moment their light met the wall of darkness conjured by Apollo, it was absorbed completely, vanishing into the void without a trace.
