The first Khaaz emerged, and I saw the shock and panic sweep past everyone in the camp.
When I had spoken about the arrival of the demon, none of them had believed me, and I did not blame them. If this were me at the first loop, I would not believe me.
I was used to the presence of the Khaaz, its twitching tendrils that seemed to be tasting the air, and its eyeless face was a thing of horror, but that horror was just the beginning, and its full weight would only land when the full scale of this eruption was taken into focus.
My outburst had drawn the entire members of the camp into one place, and when the single demon saw us, it charged with no hesitation.
Adept Fenara cursed in surprise, and her staff came up, releasing a lance of frost that struck the demon mid charge. The Khaaz froze solid and shattered on the ground.
