The battlefield had changed so drastically that it could no longer be described as a simple arena. What had once been a flat and controlled platform had now turned into a fractured and hostile environment, shaped entirely by the presence and power of the Ironclad Juggernaut.
The stone surface was broken in countless places, with deep cracks spreading outward like veins beneath the ground. From those cracks, jagged metal spikes continued to rise and fall in unpredictable patterns, reacting to the Juggernaut's movements as though the battlefield itself were alive.
Each step taken by the massive construct sent vibrations through the platform, causing the terrain to shift further. The longer the battle continued, the more unstable the environment became.
At the center of this dangerous field stood Aether.
