The dagger was inches away from her neck.
Arianell's face hardened as she stepped back, raising her arm in front of her face.
A white cluster of energy covered her hand, her body levitating in the air, propelling her backward.
CLANG!!!
The sound of Kurt's dagger colliding with a hard surface echoed within the forest.
His body spun, dodging a skeletal arm, the same size as his body, sweeping from the left.
Dust and debris rose around the place where the hand moved.
Kurt gently moved back, leaping onto the tree as he looked at Arianell.
She stood inside a large, skeletal, humanoid figure with glowing red eyes and two horns on its head.
The skeleton appeared translucent and was composed of white, bone-like structures, with ribs and an imposing, ghostly presence.
"A Tengu?" Kurt whispered, his eyes squinting at the being who conjured it, "...You can use a Tengu at this age?"
Creation is hard, cheer me up! VOTE for me!
