The dark spheres were static and simply floated in the air, seemingly harmless. But I knew the dark fae had begun using her magic because every sphere was about the size of a coin.
Ophelia immediately stopped moving, and instinctively backed away from each of the spheres. I commanded her to release the silly fae before their fighting made an even bigger mess.
Once she did, the dark fae fell limply from her grip, breathing with difficulty. Unfortunately, Ophelia was still within the confines of the spheres, so I instructed her not to move.
It was unclear what the spheres did so, as the dark fae gasped to recover her breath, I observed them.
[Don't touch it!] she screamed when she saw me get close. [It was an accident! They weren't supposed to come out!]
An accident?
