The unexpected glow throughout the battlefield distracted friend and foe alike. No one understood why these random pieces of equipment had begun to release mana. Lucius on the other-hand grinned evilly. Before anyone had the time to react, the sound of fracturing metal filled the bridge.

Thousands of pieces of shrapnel exploded into the air and into the bodies of hundreds of soldiers. Men and women screamed in pain as their bodies were peppered with the pieces.
