Each pulse of the artifact stripped away the transformation that Blue had done to appear a human. He had tried to hide his heritage so he could live with the humans without being driven away while he was still weak, and now that was being taken away from him.
His limbs turned to talons, his iris became slit. His mouth and nose came outward, forming a snout and wings sprouted from his back.
The only cloth, his pants that he was wearing was torn up as his muscular limbs became visible. Scales appeared all over them as they soon grew up to his torso and then his face.
Two horns appeared on his head and he landed on all four.
The three men looked with awe and greed as the Dragon finally revealed itself to them.
Blue struggled to push back his transformation, but he simply couldn't while this pulse was going on.
