Share your battle weekly challenge: The Molten Ash Golem

Edited using canva

Hello fellow gamers and Splinterlands lovers. I’m back again for this weeks challenge. This battle is going to be a good one!

This weeks theme card is THE MOLTEN ASH GOLEM. One card I’m not so familiar with which is under a splint I’m not familiar with as well but this wouldn’t be hinder my victory!

THE MOLTEN ASH GOLEM

The Molten Ash Golems are birthed from a creature which known as the “Forgotten One”. Created by the High Magus of the Crypteia and also serving as his personal servant, the Forgotten One is a fiery beast of both might and malice.

The Forgotten One's great power sometimes spills over, leaving trails of molten ash in its wake. And within these beats the strong enchantments the Magus originally put on his Forgotten One. Within a day, the piles of burning ash become sentient.

Rising from the ground and forming into loose humanoid shapes, these Molten Ash Golems have just one desire. To Find their creator. They will travel the lands searching for the Forgotten One, never tiring and never needing to stop. Once reunited with their source, they serve faithfully for as long as they continue to burn.
