The journey to the crater felt like traveling through a nightmare made manifest. As we approached the impact site, reality itself seemed to bend and warp around us, space-time distorting in ways that made my enhanced senses scream warnings about forces that operated beyond natural law.
"Stay close," I called to Cecilia, Rachel, Seraphina, Rose, and Reika as we flew toward the pillar of otherworldly light that marked the Infernal Armis's location. "The closer we get, the more unstable local physics become."
Rachel's healing aura wrapped around our group like a protective cocoon, her Saintess abilities working to counteract the worst effects of the dimensional distortion. "I can feel it," she said through gritted teeth, her sapphire eyes reflecting strain as she fought to maintain our stability. "Something immense just finished transforming."
