A dark shadow surged from the sea, radiating deadly intent. The force of its emergence split the sea in two, waves crashing violently to either side.
In the shadow's wake lay ruined ships and the lifeless bodies of men and beasts alike.
Among them lay the corpse of an old man, his face frozen in horror. Reflected in his eyes was the image of a man who had once burned with determination and pride.

With just a single decisive strike, he cut him in two...
"Commander General Wrath… the sword god of the light empire," Ashanil muttered quietly. "I regret having to rely on such tactics, but after witnessing how easily you overwhelm Lord Wise, I knew I stood no chance. My only choice was to end what he started."
