Silence enveloped the area as Sybilla spoke. She sat atop a seven-foot-tall beast, both of them sneering at their surroundings. The ambush had been well-planned, and Sybilla couldn't help but be impressed.
As she dismounted her monstrous steed, she surveyed the desolate landscape. Not a single human or beast was in sight, the eerie quietude reminiscent of a graveyard.
"If you won't come out, then I will force you to appear," she declared, her voice echoing through the stillness. With a powerful stomp, she caused the ground to tremble violently beneath her.
Cracks spider-webbed across the earth, expanding and spreading throughout the area. As if that wasn't enough, she casually waved her hand, and the creature behind her unleashed a torrent of flames from its mouth.
In an instant, the once-peaceful environment was plunged into chaos. Amidst the inferno, Sybilla and her beast locked their gaze on a figure standing defiantly in the heart of the flames.
