Chapter 358

A dull rumble of thunder exploded over Mo City. A thick, white bolt of lightning tore through the night sky like a jagged fracture in the darkness. The massive ley line system beneath Mo City seemed affected by the celestial discharge, flickering in and out of brightness. The laughter in the small taverns died down, and many people instinctively looked out their windows toward the sky. They could see the deep firmament revealed through the rents in the thick clouds. A colossal moon cast its brilliance down through the gaps, cutting through invisible mists to bathe the streets below in a pale blue light. Everything around appeared ethereal and sacred, causing the street lamps to pale into insignificance.
