It hadn't been too long since the battle started, and the streets of Carthage had already become rivers of fire and blood.
Ren, Lilith, and Thorn fought their way through the ruins, the roar of war crashing around them like the sounds of a storm.
They could see the tower in the distance, but it was still too far away. That wasn't enough to stop them, as they moved towards it, hacking through the bodies barring them with every violent step.
A group of Carthage soldiers barred their way, shields locked in formation. Their commander shouted, and spears leveled as they surged.
Ren was already moving. He became a blur, his feet cracking the cobblestones as he burst forward.
A Push resonance detonated from his arm, scattering the front line like pins on a board. Shields splintered, men screamed, and the formation crumbled instantly.
Ren didn't stop. His vines erupted, snaring throats and limbs, jerking bodies into walls and snapping bones like twigs.
