The high priest stood at the highest point of the temple, smiling as fire rained upon the castle. The sight brought him peace. They were doing what a demon refused to do.
Once Aurelia is destroyed, I will hunt that demoness. She, too, must pay the prize for her treachery.
Below him stood a massive army of warriors, mages, and priests. Even the demon king would falter seeing the sheer size of their army.

Victory was within his grasp.
With a smile, the high priest raised his hand.
The mages fired the most devastating spell known to humankind.
Sky trembled as countless balls of fire rose overhead. They traveled in an arch, twisting and turning as before falling towards the castle.
Lucien… you will pay for your sins with your life.
The priest gripped the railing, barely controlling his emotions. It was done. Nothing could save them now.
Until… something did.
