The desert holds its breath. For all its thrashing and psychic screaming, the leviathan cannot shake Safrin’s grip.
Melita ’s fire arrow arcs beautifully through the sky, but the shot veers too short and fizzes out in the sand, flames licking the edges of a dune. She’ll hear the low thud of it hitting earth just as the Firecracker drifts a little closer, sails catching the wind in their vibrant cloth.
But then come the hits.Koa ’s punch lands: the bracer-enhanced strike slams into the creature’s left eye with the force of a star’s fury. There’s a wet, grinding crack—not enough to gouge it free, but enough to daze it, to make the bound monstrosity flinch and reel back in mid-air.
Astaroth ’s fireball collides next: it splashes across the side of the beast’s head in a wave of incandescent white and deep orange, searing through layers of void-touched flesh. For the first time, something like sound escapes it—a bubbling, fizzing distortion that reverberates between thoughts and the marrow of bone.
Next, Zavien ’s call is answered. High above, the air stirs with unnatural speed—a zephyr, conjured by Ronin, tears across the battlefield like a blade of wind wrapped in silence. It strikes the beast across its gaping flank, a sudden slice of power so fast the eye can’t follow. There’s no flash, no warning—just a splatter of void ichor and a visible tremor in the monster’s core.
And then—Hadama. Called from slumber and sand-drenched stillness, the Tidebreaker rises and answers. Gravity bends to his will. Eight spikes fall from the sky like divine punishment, their velocity silent and final. Each one slams down into the creature’s back, spine, and skull—crunching, splitting, piercing. One drives straight through the centre of its remaining eye.
There’s no time to react. No final shriek. No glorious last stand. Just a starlit body unravelling at the seams as Safrin’s tethers vanish. The Abyssal Leviathan drops—slamming into the sand with a force that rocks the dunes in every direction. A small quake ripples outward as the carcass lands in a slump, voidlight leaking in curls from the broken holes in its hide.
It doesn’t move again. A strange hush descends in the aftermath, and for just a moment, the sky above seems clearer.
Congratulations on completing the KQ! Hak Etme has now been cleansed entirely of the void! You may all post once more, no posting order. The thread will be fin'd in 48 hrs.

Abyssal Leviathan: 0/929 ** Killed by Hadama for levelling purposes.
Abyssal Leviathan (Rare/Mythical - The Hollowed Grounds, Hak Etme): The subterranean lair of the Land Shark echoes with void energy, transforming unlucky sharks into the Abyssal Leviathans. Rising from the depths with an otherworldly hunger, this creature now possesses a shadowy, void-shrouded exterior. Its hunts are not merely for sustenance but to absorb the essence of those it captures, bringing the taint of the abyss to the surface as it returns to its lair to sleep in the void's embrace. The land above quivers with the unsettling presence of the Abyssal Leviathan, a creature that bridges the realm between the subterranean and the void-touched darkness.
You may also loot the Abyssal Leviathan for:
Abyssal Leviathan Skin | The thick hide of an Abyssal Leviathan which can be created into armour by a god. The cloak provides mastered-level protection against attacks but makes the wearer attack whoever is closest to them while wearing it.
