Malakai roared power surged through him like the tempest as he unleashed his fury upon the In Between." Shatter the In Between he commanded his troops, his voice like a whip cracking through the fabric of reality. The structure groaned and tore, realities collapsing in on themselves like a dying star. Aethera gasped, her light flaring in a desperate bid to protect Malakai from backlash.
The Architect smiled, a cold, calculating smile. "Ahhhh..chaos..perfect. " The Architect vanished into the shadow, leaving behind a void that seemed to yell "No" as the balance of The In Between imploded in a cataclysmic explosion of energy.
Malakai stumbled, his flames flickering wildly as Aethera caught him,her wings wrapping around him like a shield.
" Why? " he rasped, his voice barely audible over the din of destruction.
Aethera smiled softly, her eyes filled with a deep understanding ," You chose .... not Lorenzo ." .Echoes whispered through the shattered remnants of the In Between: " Balance ..... elsewhere.... Begins ."
The worlds trembled, the very foundations of reality shifting in response to Malakai's actions. The In Between was no more , and with it , the rules of the old world had changed forever.
