The impact didn't look like destruction at first, it looked like light.
A single point ignited in the world, brighter than anything the wasteland had ever known. And for an instant, it erased every shadow, every scar, and every stain from the world.
The world was reduced to pure white, as if reality itself had been overexposed.
Then the light expanded.
Violently.
KABOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMM!
The fireball blossomed outward in a perfect sphere, swallowing everything in its path from machines to bodies to weapons, including the very air itself, igniting as it was consumed by the flames.
Oxygen was sucked from the atmosphere, creating a vacuum that briefly stole all sound from the world as heat surged across the land in a tidal wave, turning sand into glass, metal into liquid, and bone into nothing!
Then the shockwave followed- a wall of force that flattened what little still stood, racing across the wasteland faster than thought!
