The flames were large, and hot. It even managed to reach the World Tree, causing it to pulse violently and Yggros to grunt in pain.
Light had rushed over to Xenia's side after regaining himself, and Xenia had also regained consciousness. Together with Esty, and Rhaenys, coupled with the other Elders who could do nothing else but sit amidst the rubble and recuperate; they all watched on as Jacob looked as though he was clearly being burned alive.
"Noooooo!!" Alaric, Esty, Light, and Xenia all shouted in unison, as though they had practiced beforehand. Tears already rolling down from their eyes, Xenia's especially.
Jacob had neither tried to dodge, nor block the dragonfire. He just stood there, taking the brunt of it. Alaric looked closely, something was very surprising, the young man was neither screaming, nor looked to be in any pain whatsoever, after a moment, a knowing smile appeared on the old man's face.
