Two For The Price Of One

Two figures came crashing through the rust colored cloud and decimated it entirely into scattered tufts of vapor.

One, a featherless beast the size of a seven story building, and the other, a human comparably the size of an ant.

As stark as the difference in size was, came the difference in their states.

The human on the other hand, looked mostly fine, only a few scratches and bruises marred his darkened skin. The crumbs of a broken staff falling beside him were evidence enough of what took place beyond the cloudy veil.

“I-I can take it, Eilas!” Jonas aimed at the vulnerable beast.
