As Akasha's ominous words hung in the air, I couldn't shake the feeling of impending doom. The Beast of Destruction had declared war, and I had inadvertently chosen a side by aligning myself with Shigora. While I knew this would be the outcome, it felt like I was walking a tightrope over a pit of vipers. Each time I thought I was in control, moments like this reminded me that I was still a pawn.
"Shigora, what have you done?" I muttered, my voice barely audible over the hum of my suit.
"Hey, blame the old lady. She started this whole mess. I just figured it was time to let her know that not everyone is on her side," Shigora replied nonchalantly.
I sighed, realizing that I was now caught in the crossfire of a conflict between powerful beings. The gods, it seemed, had their own agendas, and I was just a pawn in their intricate game, but I wasn't going to let them have their way.
