Either outpaces light or alters the pace of light

In the end, Malkuth chose for me. He unleashed a roar and the sound itself came alive, turning into a physical being that tore at my Light Elemental even as it became a resonance.

He leapt at me, moving fast enough to outpace light—or else, altering the pace of light—to strike at me.
