The great hall of the ancient temple had served as a bestiary for the inhabitants of the lost city.
It had been filled with nebulous statues depicting the different species of creatures that populated Tenebris.
The statues had been masterfully crafted, sharing an eerie resemblance to their real-life counterparts.
Time and effort had gone into skilfully sculpting the life-like masterpieces, probably for future generations.
Sadly, all the time that had been invested had been nullified in one day.
The meticulously arranged bestiary was now a ghost of its former glory.
Webs of cracks spread throughout the floor, zigzagging through the hall from the centre of the titanic clash.
Broken statues littered the floor, and debris rained in all directions from the fury of the devastating battle.
Emily quietly hid behind a massive statue at the far end of the hall, ducking occasionally to dodge random bits of flying debris.
"At this rate, nothing is going to be left," she thought in awe.
