You watch in horror
Reaching out your midnight-black hand, you touch her wing from behind
before you answer. She jerks trying to move her delicate feathers out
of the way, but you brush your fingers over them. The shafts begin
mending, and healing themselves. She watches, quite dumbfounded again.
"How did you do that?" You reply truthfully, "I don't
know. It all started when I saw this jewel . . ." You lift your
wrist to show her, and she grabs it looking uneasily at the now-gray
gem. "This is the mark of Derelas. I am sorry, but you are one of
the Forgotten now. I cannot talk to you anymore." She makes as if
to fly off leaving you behind.
As you watch in horror as the creatures of your own making surround
her, snarling and howling with excitement. She opens her mouth in a
wordless scream trying to escape. Finally, you snap back to your
senses and cry out, "Stop!" The demon-creatures freeze
staring at you then suddenly they all disappear in a whirlwind of
gray. The angel flaps her wings, but cannot fly any longer. One of the
demons did get to her tender wings, and mauled some of the feathers
vital to flying. The sky brightens as you control your dark magic
banishing it from this light-powered realm. The winged female looks
very confused glancing around. She asks in a shaken voice, "Who
are you?"
