Clayton froze in shock at the sudden appearance of a group of mysterious creatures. As he stood motionless, the creatures darted straight toward him.
Panicked, Clayton instinctively conjured a dome of water around himself. But the shadow weirds didn't even slow down—they charged straight through without hesitation.
Clayton was baffled. Were these things mindless? Did they even have a brain?
But within seconds, the answer became painfully clear.
Swoosh!
The shadow weirds slammed into his water dome—and instead of bouncing off or being repelled, they passed through it effortlessly.
That's when Clayton realized: these creatures were immune to magic. Panic surged through him—he had no idea what to do.
Desperate, he threw a punch at one of the creatures. If magic doesn't work, maybe physical attacks will, he reasoned.
Thwack!
The punch landed with a dull splash—muffled by the water—but it did absolutely nothing. Worse, the creature began to seep into his hand on contact.
