/Aether… we have a problem./
Aether sighed... when Helena's voice echoed in his mind.
He looked at Sera, who too turned serious, her flames flickering faintly around her.
They decided to teleport when, all of a sudden, Aether's eyes widened.
His instincts screamed... He moved back instantly and pushed Sera down, just barely an inch away from where a long axe swirled past, slicing through the air with a shriek sharp enough to split a mountain!
Aether immediately turned back to the ashes and saw…. Something rising from the ashes.
sshhhhss~
Aether's frown deepened… as a human-sized figure slowly stood up from the ashes of the skeleton.
Its body was fully shrouded in dust and soot, an eerie silhouette trembling as if struggling to reform. With a single violent jerk, the ashes scattered and drifted away, revealing the horned skull beneath.
