The Corrupted

It is a presence, a powerful one, and it is coming toward me.

They had sensed me as I had sensed them. I wanted to run away, and even took a step, before stopping myself. There is no need to run away. Given their power, they would easily be able to catch up to me.

So, I waited. 

Not useless instead, I moved my strings around the book, before wrapping the book with them, before pulling out.

I had just taken the book in my hand when they appeared in front of me.

"I thought there would be no one beside me who would be interested in books," said the pleasant feminine voice.

Hearing this, I turned and saw a beautiful tall woman with shiny black hair. She is taller, taller than humans. She a slightly above seven feet tall and has a lean warrior physique.
