The unstable portals flicker erratically, offering a chance for escape from the overwhelming shadowy creatures. The decision to leave Cernach and flee through one of these gateways weighs heavily on your mind as you assess the consequences. As you contemplate abandoning your ally, a deafening roar echoes through the chamber, shaking the very foundation of the stone circle. Suddenly, a colossal beast bursts forth from a ruptured portal, its form twisted and monstrous, exuding an aura of malevolence that freezes you in place. This creature, known as Balor's Spawn, is a vile abomination born of chaos and darkness, set loose upon both realms by the malevolent force seeking dominion.
