By the time that Leone had cancelled her spell and allowed the desert to return to normal, the area around her was incapable of doing so; where before the glittering gold grains of sand had rested in the thousands, catching and reflecting the rays of the sun to create a serene and beautiful - and hot - landscape that was such a simple yet incredible sight, there now rested a rather unnatural and horrifying plane of clear-ish glass above the sands we were familiar with.
Even if this glass would eventually crack and break before returning to the sands from which it came, it was still a proclamation of Leone's might that would never be forgotten, not by those of us who had witnessed it.
Whew~
