As Elena cautiously approached the slumbering Azazel, an eerie sensation settled over the group. They couldn't shake off the feeling that an oppressive aura was enveloping them, as though unseen eyes were watching their every move. 

The air grew thick with tension, and a shiver crawled down their spines, making them uneasy.
