Under Monroe's persistent explanation, Alvis nodded in agreement. Such powerful destruction, comparable to a Heavenly Disaster, was beyond even his own capabilities — a mere Wizard could not possibly unleash such potent magic!
However, there were some aspects that did not make sense if it were indeed a Heavenly Disaster.
Within the empire, common Heavenly Disasters could generally be classified as earthquakes, thunderstorms, hurricanes, droughts, floods, and meteorite falls…
The first few types clearly did not match; only the scenario of meteorite falls bore some resemblance, but he had questioned the imperial soldiers who had fled back.
It was night time; if meteorites had fallen from the sky, they should have been distinctly visible!
"I suspect that this might be the scene of an underground volcanic eruption!" Monroe conjectured.
