The shockwave reached the prisoners a moment later and threw them all backward in their chains, and Octavius felt his ribs crack against the bindings.
When he could see again, THE Farmer was already among the other Ancients, and the region around him was fighting with him. He hooked the blade of the hoe over a chain forged from a compressed Dimension and yanked, and as he pulled, the sea wall behind the Ancient on the other end of it rolled forward and slammed into the Ancient's back, so that the Ancient came flying into the haft of the hoe, which THE Farmer drove into his face with a sound that cracked the sky!
CRACK!
He drove another Ancient straight down with a downward stroke of the blade, through the sky, through the clouds, and into the bed of the empty sea, and the seabed opened to meet him, the ground itself pulling him in, so that the impact split it across the width of a Dimension and blue water exploded upward around the crater in a wall!
