>>6339802Maggde comes running from behind, and you turn to address her. Not even sparing a glance on you, you shoves you aside and you crash into Hassan, rolling on the ground from the force of the hit. You notice that she seems changed, more feral. Her attention is fixed on the monster. Beyond her you can see that Chernabel is standing in place and woefully uncovered, as if shocked by her appearance.
"Get back," she gravely enunciates, as if something were brewing in the back of her throat.
She takes to the ground on all fours, gripping the grass with her fingers. You notice that her hands seem transformed into ash-black claws. She pulls back her head, and in one devastating motion, a raging torrent of fire escapes her mouth like napalm, a flame so hot it burns scarlet, like something not from this plane, and you feel your bangs and eyebrows being singed. Yet, you can't look away or move. The plume of flame is several times larger than the wyverian herself, a conical blast that meets the monster head-on, instantly enveloping it.
The gigantic plant is in agony. Its body rapidly catches fire in multiple places that haven't already been vaporized by the initial blast. The flames have consumed entire portions of its body, leaving nothing but crumbling and swirling ashes behind, and its vital core appears to power down. It leans limply to the side like a wilted flower. The mushrooms upon its crown are rapidly shrinking into nothing.
The grass under the explosion has been turned into a black field, and smoke emanates from the sinkhole like the aftermath of a house fire. Everything smells burnt. You cover your mouth and nose with your shirt and cough furiously into it. What is this power... ? The thought races through your head amidst the confusion.
