Her body started floating, but upon closer inspection, she was getting lifted up by a thin thread of fungus.
"What if I used that harvested energy to supplement myself instead of healing?" Her sword sparked with crimson rot as she flew at the abomination. [Blade Dance: Rotten Spore Wind]
The abomination jumped away, "Damn it!"
