The eighty-fourth dawn bathed Kael El's Ashen Empire in a radiant golden sheen, the 10,906 square kilometers of his Territory Level 5 dominion vibrating with newfound strength. The capital city stood at 320 buildings, bone steel and golden turrets piercing the sky as 2,688,000 subjects marveled at the Golden Colossus—its hundred-meter frame now complete, towering over the plaza, gold steel gleaming, core pulsing with violet-gold light. Kael stood at its base, Stormforged Blade in hand, its shard-pommel humming in sync with the giant's heartbeat. EX: Dragonflame Reaver glowed at his hip, and Stormhide Armor clad him, its scars catching the morning sun. His flirty smirk danced across his lips, a cool dominance radiating as he flexed EX: Gold Dominion, golden veins threading the cobblestones beneath his boots.
