Thanatos' shadow summon landed gracefully before Typhaon's Core.
The bird, a massive creature formed of shifting, liquid-like shadows, dissolved seamlessly into his shadow as he stepped onto the barren ground.
The air itself began to tremble.
Waves of invisible energy rippled outward as Typhaon stirred.
Its aura caused the space around it to distort.
The giant tree at the center of the wasteland groaned and creaked and its massive roots pulsated with pale light as it prepared to strike.
Space twisted unnaturally, stretching the distance between Thanatos and Typhaon's Core to near-infinite.
But....
"It's useless," Thanatos said.
He killed the warped space with a casual snap of his fingers.
It snapped back to normal and the distortion vanished as if the had never existed.
"Stretching space is like stretching a ribbon," he muttered,. "It only makes it easier to tear."
The giant tree shuddered violently.
