The Volcano Eruption

The volcano explodes, throwing red comets across the dawn sky above the dying ninth floor.

Story so far

After Emberus threw Samantha into the volcano exactly as Carl predicted, the god began blowing up the world. Dawn was rising over Larracos as red comets from the exploding volcano streaked through the air overhead and the heat became sweltering.

Elle was the first to remark on it, Imani called time, and Mordecai sat in the dirt watching it burn with a cigarette and a bottle until only a minute remained.

Appearance

An erupting volcano throwing red comets across a rising dawn sky, with sweltering, rapidly worsening heat below.

Role

The visible face of the ninth floor's destruction and the clock everyone is running against.

Relationships

Emberus — Caused it as he began destroying the floor.
Samantha — Thrown into the volcano, triggering it.
