Final Blow

"Gah!"

As Valyr turned his head to look at Riekan, the latter felt a throbbing pain radiate from his chest as he tightly clutched at it, kneeling on the ground before taking a few deep breaths soon after. Then, once he felt that the pain had subsided somewhat, he went ahead and took a look at Eir who stood beside him, oblivious to what had just happened.

After that, Riekan shifted his gaze to look at Valyr, whose expression only served to stoke the flames of anger in his body. Though the man's expression seemed neutral, Riekan knew that the gaze this human had towards him contained hints of mockery towards his current condition.

Nevertheless, seeing as one of his trusted aides had fallen to the ground due to the human's boorish tactics, the flames of anger within Riekan's body burned even brighter, prompting him to send more energy towards the other being that stood beside him, causing him to feel yet another wave of pain envelop his body.
