In the blink of an eye, the lava pillars gradually dissipated, their molten glow fading to reveal the One-Horned Wolf sprawled upon the ground, its fate uncertain.
Draken summoned a gust of wind to clear the smoke and dust, unveiling the aftermath for all to see. The Instructors and students alike focused intently on the fallen beast before them.
