Blink.
A cave—but not the same one anymore.
In it was a crater, a very big one, almost as if a God's fist smashed straight through it.
At the center was Malik, or... what was left.
Barely held together flesh, ribs sticking out, and exposed bone.
A chunk of something—maybe a lung—hung loose from his side.
At the edge of that scene was a flaming monkey, a Qurd.
With its head cocked to the side, it watched.
It was silent, almost confused.
Blink.
"BEHOLD AN UNIMAGINABLE PAST."
Blink.
The insides of a massive stomach bulged.
It was black, wet, and filled with some sort of acid.
Bones floated in it, alongside melting flesh.
No doubt this was a Roc's stomach.
Malik's body was swirling in its digestive bile.
His limbs had softened, and his skin was gone.
Teeth floated loose beside him like coins in a soup.
He died an agonizing death.
Blink.
"BEHOLD AN UNIMAGINABLE PAST."
Blink.
Just outside a cave's entrance, Malik's corpse sprawled.
