"When will this nightmare end?" Yllana sat cross-legged on the edge of the life force pool. She was staring at the glowing symbol of the thunder phoenix staff. Last time she checked, it was a plain staff, but now it has a symbol of a blue phoenix on its body, and the black vines coiled around it.
"Master…" Blue was playing with a small silver bird inside the core. It has a long tail and sharp electric blue eyes. What was most attractive to it was its black and silver crown on its head. It commanded attention. The way it flapped its wings as it stared down at Blue is like an emperor looking down on a servant. "Ugh, arrogant bird…" She crossed her arms over her chest and pouted.
She looked over Yllana who was still sitting by the pool. She saw her dipping her fingers into the pool when the bird suddenly flew towards Yllana with its talons ready to snatch Yllana's hand in the pool. She rushed over, but she was a second too late.
Swish!
