Erok was breathing a little faster than before. "Alright. That was intense. She's better than the first one, for sure. Maybe that Atrox guy won't be that bad after all."
He walked over the girl's blood, kicking her body for good measure as he made his way up another set of stairs and into a hallway. Suddenly, he paused and tilted his head up, a frown on his face.
He was watching the ceiling when it collapsed inward with a blast of fire! He used Shadow Step to appear further away, his sword raised in front of him.
Finally, Erok saw Atrox. He was a man still in or recently past his coming of age. His hair was like wild darkness behind him, and his eyes such sharp green. His hands and feet glowed like molten stone.
"What did you do?" Atrox asked in a voice like whispering flames.
