Corey had a weird sense of déjà vu as he heard Aethara's scream which was a mixture of primal rage and an anguished cry of despair. It was similar to the time Raegar screamed after he killed his soldiers with poison.
However, hers was much louder. It was louder than the scream of a banshee, and to Corey's surprise, it also had a beauty in it that seemed otherwordly and… forbidden?
'A fallen angel?'
Corey was baffled by these strange thoughts that came to his mind as he stared at the twisted and horrified expression of Aethara which was moving in slow motion in his perception.
'She's beautiful even when she's angry and terrified.'
BOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Just as Corey had this thought, a cataclysmic explosion resounded across the Imperium. The barriers of the Imperium shook and the skies above were blown apart.
