A vision of pure chaos. That's what they witnessed after rushing out through Julius' window.
The deafening cacophony of collapsing facilities filled the air. Raging fires engulfed the rubble, the temperature soared, and the sky took a deep shade of red.
Billowing black smoke carried the putrid stench of carbonisation with the wind, and desperate cries echoed in the vicinity.
But they understood everything was only the outer reaches of the veritable disaster as they gazed further. A monstrous cloud of dust rose to the sky, threatening to pierce its vastness and spread its toxic fumes on the earth.
Anxiety gripped the duo's hearts as they recognised where the explosion occurred: Shepard's tower!
"Who is crazy enough to attack this lunatic's living quarters?!" Exclaimed Raynard, icy sweat dripping from his forehead.
