-----
The Tenfold Realm trembled as Shiva unleashed his ultimate dance, a performance meant to bring both an end and a new beginning to all creation. This was one of the reasons he was so deeply respected and feared, despite his wild and disrespectful nature.
Every movement of his legs, arms, and head shook the Tenfold Realm. Cracks spread rapidly across their surface. Anyone watching would have expected Maria to laugh and revel in the spectacle as entire worlds crumbled.
But the opposite was true. Maria had no desire to destroy these worlds. She knew that doing so would only feed the monster waiting at the top of the tower.
In fact, as she watched the furious Shiva attack her while dancing, she quickly realized this had to be their plan.
"I've heard there are the True Immortals and the Jade Emperor they serve, yet none of them are here? They've only sent small fry! Hey Shiva, are you sure that old bastard is working with you all?!"
"DIEEEEE!"
