Dashing through the forest, Rey ducked a protruding branch. I could call for this unknown being to stop . . . but, who actually does stop? Raising his hand, the mage released a burst of energy. Instantly, an orb of Void formed itself about the shadow.
"Don't move if you value your life!" Rey warned. In response, the figure remained fully still.
As he approached the captured being, Rey slowed his pace. Though it had been facing away from the mage, the being turned its head at his approach. Despite his normally calm demeanor, Rey felt a strange shock travel through him. Never before had he seen such a creature. Its general shape seemed similar to that of a human, yet it was wholly unlike any biped the mage had seen. Rather, it had the twisted form of an imp or demonic being.
Despite his surprise, Rey began to question the creature. However, before he could speak, the being gave a grotesque smile and vanished.
