"What the fuck was happening here!!" Pearl shouted, her voice echoing through the desolate landscape as dark energy began to coil around Eli's unconscious form.
Arlyne, equally alarmed, took a cautious step back from Eli's prone body, "Should we try to pull him out of this...whatever it is?" she asked, her eyes wide with a mix of fear and confusion.
"ggrrr" Pearl, still trying to comprehend the bizarre scene unfolding before her, gritting her teeth.
The surrounding sand seemed to lose its vitality, turning black as if drained of life essence. It was a sight that instilled both awe and dread in the hearts of the two women.
"P-Princess Pearl, what should we do?" Arlyne stammered, her gaze fixed on Eli's convulsing form.
"I... I don't know," Pearl muttered, equally perplexed and frightened. This was her first encounter with such a phenomenon, and she had no idea what was happening to Eli.
