David was a collection of flames at this point. He was nothing more but embers and wisps of light that danced around and produced heat.
If he had gone any further, it would have caused a rip in the fabric of reality in the world. However, the situation at hand could be worse than even that.
The Prince quickly went over his options as the light enveloped him. While it was powerful, so much so that anything brought under it would have been vaporized away, David's intangible form was not even touched by the outburst.
Now, in front of him was a hulking skeletal monstrosity made up of dirt, ashes, sand, ore, and so on. A Formorian attempting to reach the power they once had luckily Bathin was not close to it.
David could push his power further, rip a hole in the world. That could possibly deal with the problem at hand, but the chances of Bathin resisting and even fixing the hole with his regression was a big possibility.
