"NOOOOO!"
Evelyn screamed out in rage and sorrow as she watched Otis ripped to shreds by the attack that had been meant for her.
She watched blood spray from his sundered body and knew that without a doubt he was dead.
His head was flying off in a separate direction from his torso and not even the greatest magic in the world would be able to save him.
It had all happened so incredibly quickly that Evelyn could not process what had happened.
One minute they were celebrating their victory over a tough foe, and the next Otis was dead.
Two powerful emotions began a war inside Evelyn.
A part of her was consumed by fury and she was seeing red, and the other part was overwhelmed by the anguish of losing a friend.
Evelyn had lost so many people that she cared about in the past, and seeing another one be mercilessly killed without being able to do anything was enough to shatter her will.
'I have to avenge him. I have to!'
