As he managed to turn his gaze to what held him while he was being dangled up above the abyssal sea, he saw a pitch-black tendril extending from the approaching mass of shadows, wrapped around his ankle.
"Let go…!"
Forcing those words from his lips as he strained himself, a bellowing "whisper" emitted from the shadows.
"---"
–There was no decipherable meaning to the emission that fell upon his ears, instead pushing against his body like a spoken storm. It rattled him to the marrow of his bones, embedding deep inside of him that primal fear of the unknown as he hung there.
'...I need to escape–now!' He thought.
Clenching his core, he breathed in as he summoned his strength as quickly as possible, armoring himself in draconic scales as a burst of azure embers propelled outward around him.
