Just how bad are things going to be. The three guards remain perfectly still during this time, watchful and poised they don’t miss a single movement I make.

When the tunnels connected to the surface, mana from the centre of Pangera flooded the skies, followed a tidal wave of monsters that nearly washed away any remnant of civilisation on this world.]
Yikes.
