Lyerin stood tall as the final glow of the magic circles faded, the remnants of his chant still hanging in the air like an electric charge.
The world seemed to hold its breath, waiting for what would come next. And then, out of nowhere, Lyerin smiled—a slow, sinister smile that sent chills down the spines of everyone who watched.
That smile grew wider, and before anyone could react, his laughter erupted, echoing through the sky.
"HAHAHAHAHAHA! HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA!! HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"
The laughter was maniacal, wild, and uncontrollable.
It reverberated across the Stonehooves Tribe, bouncing off the stone structures and filling the air with its unsettling sound.
The girls—Corora, Sophia, Cornelia, Maria, Elena, Lydia, Fiona, Emily, and Natalie—stood in stunned silence.
They had seen Lyerin accomplish impossible feats before, but this... this sounds sinister.
