The hall fell silent once more.
The price had overwhelmed nearly every competitor.
Raylo scanned the room, preparing to bring down the hammer and seal the deal.
Just then, a youthful voice rang out.
"I'll offer... a Tier Five Giant's Heart."
A young Giant who had been sitting silently in a corner the entire time stood up.
The hall erupted.
Every Giant in attendance whipped their heads around to stare at the young man, their faces filled with shock and disbelief.
Raylo's heart hammered in his chest.
A Giant's Heart!
What was that?
It was an Energy Crystal formed when a Hill Giant, knowing its life was coming to an end, condensed all of its lifelong Power and the essence of its bloodline into its heart. Using an ancient Secret Technique of the Giants, the heart itself would be transformed into pure energy.
Each Giant's Heart represented the fall—and the legacy—of a Tier Five Giant.
