When it happened, everything seemed to go silent.
The birds stopped singing.
The wind stopped howling.
The hermits, worried about what was next, stopped the commotion.
Cleo and Joe, who were rejoicing about Cleo's recovery of her memory, froze.
Ren, who was eating with his new friends, dropped his fork.
Under the rubble of Xisuma's base, Gem surfaced. Not even she could bring herself to say anything.
Grim stumbled through the forest and rested against a tree, knowing he was helpless for what was going to happen.
Hels and Evil Xisuma sat in a bunker under Iskalls fortress.
And finally, Iskall, Stress, Grian and Mumbo. The group couldn't tear their eyes away from the sky.
Everything went to hell, literally.
——————————————————————————
The cracks that spanned across the sky shattered. It looked like there were holes in the sky. Iskall knew better. Those holes weren't in the sky, they were in their dimension.
Out of some of those holes, waterfalls of lava poured out. When it hit the ground, it created rivers. Some of it gathered in pools, some set fire to the forest.
Out of others, giant chunks of netherrack dropped down. When it hit, it embedded itself in the floor. The grass around where they hit instantly turned to dark grey. The death started to spread, anything growing out of the ground, killed.
For a second, Iskall found himself unable to move. He finally got himself going. "Grian, Stress, Mumbo. Let's go!"
The four of them took flight, dodging the raining netherrack.
"Where are we going?" Grian shouted.
"Anywhere! We need to take cover!"
They got to the jungle when a chunk of netherrack hit Mumbo's elytra. He went tumbling down and hit the floor with a sickening thud.
The rest landed next to him. He was definitely injured, barley able to talk.
Grian swung his arm around his shoulder but froze. He watched a massive piece of netherrack crash through his mansion. It was like it was cut in half.
"No..."
Iskall helped Mumbo onto Grians back. "Grain! We have to go."
"But, my mansion. I never even finished it."
"I know. But now isn't the time to shut down. You're the only one with strong enough wings to carry Mumbo."
"Right. Yeah..." He took off into the air, the other two following.
They dodged one of the pillars at Mumbo's base as it fell down. Some of the grey from the raining netherrack spread to Iskalls tree. It turned black and the leaves fell off. His omega tree was dead.
He paused for a second but he knew he had to keep going. He swerved around a lava stream and landed by his cave entrance.
"Into the cave! It's our best chance." He shouted.
The rest followed him in. The descended deeper and deeper, listening to the thuds and watching the roof shake. Finally, silence.
They gently put Mumbo down and walked to the surface.
"This can't be real." Stress whispered to herself.
Every single field of grass, every tree and every bush was dead. It has all turned dark grey and the only exception of colour was the lava that formed pools and rivers. The sky was a blueish grey and filled with smoke.
