War is the only Answer

We knew the power of the Dark Immortal was immense. Our assault was immediate and violent. The cavern trembled as the Dark Immortal let out a churning screech. While our forces took heavy damage, we managed to bind the Dark Immortal. The cavern howled, and the air cracked like splitting bone. Then the Dark Immortal was gone. Afterward, King Tamperion met the survivors. He approached the colonists and bowed deeply. For all that had been lost, the nightmare was over.
