Prompt: Destruction

((Continuing from Prompt: Shield))

The fleeing flood of people frustrated Helen as they slowed her progress toward the heart of the city. The streets were filled with chaos even before reaching the cobbled main road encircling the Upper City, but they were nothing to the sight that greeted her there.

 Whatever was bombarding the city did some damage before the shields were erected: rubble, fires, and the general confused crowds either fleeing or trying to save those caught in collapsed structures. Fear struck hard as she stepped through Salma District's gate and looked up to see the damaged tower and wall of the Promenade.
