148 Nothing but Ashes

JAY CADMIUM'S POV:

I reached the top of the hill, the view of a small city finally revealing itself. I eyed the settlement with a burning rage that boiled within me, its cozy atmosphere churning my insides like an angered ocean.

My anger reached the citizens as they all began to look in my direction one by one. Murmurs of confusion and fear arose, but all I could hear was the booming voice inside my head. Continuously roaring with fury as it ordered me to slay everything in my path.

"Kill them all!" it bellowed. I closed my eyes, feeling the control I held over my actions slowly but steadily disappearing. I tried to focus on the breeze that washed through the area, feeling the rhythmic swaying of my long white hair.

I took a deep breath, opening my eyes once more. I slowly lifted my arm into the air, opening the palm of my hand and concentrating massive amounts of bind all around me.
