Brawl in the Burning Mangroves

The hero squared up with his enemy as dry mangrove trees erupted in flames around them.

Every punch sent sparks spiraling into the smoke-choked air. The bark beneath

their feet crackled and split, glowing orange from within. His opponent lunged

through a wall of fire, skin glistening with sweat and ash. They traded blows

while embers rained down like hellfire. The trees screamed as they burned, branches collapsing

around the fighters who refused to stop.
