The high-energy particle beam cannon had struck the Pangula Highlands, leaving a ravine about five meters wide and stretching dozens of kilometers.
Viscous streams of lava occasionally flowed down the ravine walls.
The Light Pillar had nearly melted through the shallow layer of soil at the surface. At its deepest point, it was likely more than a kilometer deep, but still nowhere near deep enough for the Continental Oscillator to be deployed.

He looked up at the fiery
