Ojalá se desmoronaran, destruyeran, aniquilaran, desaparecieran, fulminarán, derramarán en el olvido; que no hubiera un vestigio de lo que ahí ocurrió....
Y después de eso, empezará a nacer un nuevo corazón y el alma solita se empiece a renovar. Así se tendría la confianza y el amor intacto para volver a comenzar... Y, por qué no? Volverse a enamorar.

Unexpectedly Useful Verbs - Fulminar
Fulminar is a verb that you will hear primarily in a scientific setting or a mythological setting and sometimes a legal setting. Its most common usage is "to strike down", which usually involves "a bolt of lightning" or the sense of "to smite", and in some cases it means "to electrocute / be struck by lightning" or "to pass away suddenly (because of an illness, injury etc.)" I believe this root word is used in other words like "effulgent" which means "blindingly bright".
The verb itself is related to Medieval Latin's word for "lightning", which is why adjectives like fulminante is related to a "fulminate" in chemistry. From what the interwebs tells me, a fulminate is typically a compound that explodes with friction, which means that fulminante and fulminar often have the imagery of a sudden and violent movement.
The main thing to take away is that its imagery evokes a sense of "lightning", so it's used for explosive, sudden or crushing shows of strength and influence, or extreme suddenness or intensity.
