Re: Part 64d - It's only the end of the world. Again.
With a howl, one of the two duelling Archons falls, its blades scattering in all directions, some of them hammering into the shingle of the beach, sending pebbles spraying. Not two feet from Devlin, a piece of driftwood suddenly seems to sprout a gleaming metal protrusion, which continues to vibrate for several seconds, like a sort of lethal tuning fork.
The majority of the creature falls in the lake, though, and the great beast out there becomes enraged as its body and tentacles are slashed by wildly spinning blades.
Suddenly the wheel of water seems to explode into a fine mist, which starts to drift downwards, falling faster as it coalesces into larger droplets, fragments of flesh, whole limbs... until, with a loud thump, A young blonde woman, naked and covered with blood, crashes into the shallow water at the lake's edge! She curls into a ball then, hands covering her head, and screams. One of the fallen Archon's blades juts up from her thigh...
Beyond her, the towering mass of water is collapsing, and the level in the lake starts to rise, as a great wave moves towards the shore.
Above, only two Archons remain, and they are engaged in a battle to the death. One of them must be Trgiaob, still intent on keeping its own part in this affair hidden from Harbonah...
