• As Gho’Zra loomed ever closer towards his prey, the turbulent, frothing effects of the Æther Splitter finally encompassed him. The effects were as immediate as they were horrendous! Twitching and writhing in paroxysms of unparalleled pain, he unconsciously opened his mouth in a muffled scream as his flesh began to quickly fall away into nothing. As she witnessed the success of her work, Twilight Sparkle smiled as she softly whispered, “I’m going home.” With a mere thought she severed the hose to her air supply, letting the virulent waters enter into her suit. In seconds the diving suit collapsed, as if it were empty; she’d been completely broken down into nothingness.

    For Gho’Zra, the experience was unlike anything before. The pain was both excruciating and numb at the same time, and in his heart he understood that he was dying. He was dying, and for some reason this fact alone brought a peace to his soul which he’d only ever dreamed of. Were he capable of such a thing, he may very well have smiled. But as the last of his consciousness slowly faded into oblivion, the primordial beast -the animalistic instincts that dwelled so deeply inside of him – pushed past the last vestiges of his soul, compelling his body to make a break for the surface in the vain hope of escaping the inevitable. With a mighty swish of his tail, the dying beast rocketed towards the surface as a pyre of silver laced foam followed in his wake.

    On the deck of the ‘Perlen Läufer’, the crew and officials watched in awe as the surface of the waters began to broil and churn in a most unnatural and disgusting manner. The sound of it could scarcely be described beyond the notion of bubbling iron and searing rain all wrapped in a shroud of turgid, arcane agony! The boat soon began to rock in earnest s the resultant waves turned exceedingly violent. As the phenomenon reached its climax, every single soul board the vessel cried out in horror as the grotesque form of Gho’Zra broke the surface and lashed about in desperate fury. Its body was half deteriorated, and was quickly fading fast – it was already more bone than flesh as struggled to escape the clutches of its own demise.
    With the last of its fading strength, Gho’Zra fiercely cast its empty, skeletal eye sockets towards the sky as it opened its maw and let loose one final defiant roar. It was long – stretching on for a full minute as all of its collective rage, pain, doubts and fears, hatred, pride, joys and sorrows, everything it had ever experienced in its tortured life, were released in one final scream. In a way, it was almost tragic – a byproduct of powers beyond its control, the beast had never truly had a chance to begin with... As the roar faded away, Gho’Zra finally passed on. The remains of his body slowly sank once more beneath the churning waves…
