The heavy howling, the oppressive shadow, the hurricane carried by the air, and the bloody stench leaking from the giant's wounds were all signs that the hill-sized hand was about to strike.

The enormous fist shattered the instant they collided, and the tremendous impact that followed accelerated Dawn once more.
That attack had only been a feint. He had condensed an empty shell to draw the enemy's attention; once it was shattered, it released
