BOOOOM!!!
A deafening explosion echoed from the distance, shaking the very earth beneath our feet.
The shockwave rippled through the air, and for a brief moment, everything around me trembled.

A soft golden hue touched the clouds as the first rays of the sun pierced through the cracks in the broken darkness, signaling the end of the night's turmoil.
"It's dawn already… but weren't we just fighting for a few minutes at best?" Lucas mumbled from beside me, his voice laced with confusion.
