The fire burned strong and bright inside the tree monster's body.
As it took a step forward, the fire channeled itself through its arms and shot out in all directions, igniting everything in its path.
Adam covered his body with his brilliant wings and then flew through the fire like a phoenix.
The fire couldn't reach him.
As soon as he emerged from the other side of the fire, the fire-clad roots smashed down at him like whips of flames, but again, Adam put the wings around himself to protect him from harm.
The whips didn't reach him, but the brute force of those whips sent him flying back into the flames.
With the wings protecting him, he flew through the flames and landed safely on the other side.
Immediately after, the tree monster ran through the flames, its wooden body completely on fire like a raging inferno.
Its leaves had already turned charred and ash.
