Trafalgar watched the battlefield twist into something he did not like.
Void Creatures poured from the rifts without hesitation, tearing into whatever stood closest. Thal'zar soldiers fell beside allied troops. Former enemies died the same way as those meant to be protected. There was no pattern he could rely on. No line he could draw and say this side is safe.
'They're not choosing sides…'
That realization dug in deeper than it should have. He had assumed there was structure to this. A pact. A direction. The Void Creature at the center of all this had been tied to the Thal'zar. Or at least, that was what everything so far had suggested.
But this was different.
If it was truly aligned with them, this level of indiscriminate slaughter made no sense.
Either something had angered it.
Or it had never been bound in the first place.
