The Grand Imperial Arena no longer resembled a place built for competition.
It had become a battlefield standing at the edge of catastrophe.
Silver-gold soulfire surged violently across half the shattered arena, illuminating the broken landscape with radiant waves of spiritual fire, while endless eclipse darkness consumed the opposing half like a living abyss attempting to swallow the world whole.

The sky above had already lost its natural form.
Massive distortions twisted through the clouds continuously. Silver aurora-like currents streaked upward from the Sovereign Soulfire Domain while colossal rivers of darkness devoured entire sections of the heavens. Space itself appeared unstable, bending unnaturally every few seconds beneath the overwhelming clash of powers.
