### 106

You are dazzled by a brilliant flash as the two globes explode, scattering fragments that hiss like a host of fiery snakes into the Palmyrion ranks. The men-at-arms scream with pain and terror as the fragments burn everything they touch. You cannot escape the worst of the blast, but the sleeve of your tunic is splashed with fragments and is now on fire.

If you have the Magnakai Discipline of Nexus and have reached the Magnakai rank of Principalin or more, turn to 2.

If you do not possess this skill, or have yet to reach this level of Magnakai training, turn to 253.
