Ominous winds howled.
The duo's heart seemed to have skipped a beat as the head of what seemed to be a dragon emerged from the left, draconic eyes and long, white whiskers darting about.
Hal thought they were detected and was done for the moment the creature stopped in front of them.
But to his relief, the massive beast simply continued its eerily stable, forward glide in the next moment, this time a bit faster after noticing the [Spirit Wolf]'s tracks.
Shouldn't a dragon be rising and falling with every flap of its mighty wings?
How could this one be sliding so smoothly?
Untethered and carried by the passing breeze, the beast floated forth, its entire body slowly revealing itself.
Soon, the head disappeared into the other side of the alcove.
Hal and Loki slightly eased, their breathing growing a bit steadier as they continued to observe the creature in awe.
It didn't have any claws.
