The mere sight of her sent shivers down Era's spine.
Era's smile was forced and uneasy as she tried to maintain her composure. 'She's terrifying,' thought to herself. 'I knew she was strong but not that strong, but in the end, she's a child there's always a way to handle brats like her,' she nervously grinned.

Aurianna, however, was not so easily fooled. Her piercing gaze bore into Era, her eyes as cold and unforgiving as a winter's night. "Once again, do you think I'm dumb?" she asked, raising a single eyebrow.
