Absolute carnage unfolded on the frozen battlefield, where lifeless bodies lay scattered, their form gruesome.
These bodies belonged to the brave Mages who had valiantly fought for Merlin's cause.
Amidst the grim aftermath, only three figures remained standing. The first was Poseidon, who hadn't moved even an inch from his position, his eyes radiating a divine blue aura.
Merlin stood as the second survivor, surrounded by a protective barrier created from a precious artifact that activated on its own when his life was in danger. However, he could see just that after blocking that one attack, the treasure had started cracking.
The events transpired so swiftly that Merlin could hardly comprehend them. One moment, they attacked Merlin. And in the next breath, all were dead.
