Airthas' attack was successful as the creature statue was reduced to nothing more than a pile of rubble once again. It tried to pull itself together before their eyes as the pebbles lifted into the air, but simply fell back down, never to rise again. Airthas fell back down to his feet, beginning to feel weak from his exertion of such energy. ----- Angles and Daechir could hear the sounds of battle just ahead, a loud crackling sound tore through the halls.
