Cracks

Cracks spread through the water in a ripple-like pattern, soon filling the entire room in an instant. It happened so fast that the water wasn't able to properly flow and fill in the gaps created through those cracks right away, so of course the Naiad Queen wasn't able to react right away either.

The special dagger's cracks soon reached the powerful spirit's body, digging their way into her flesh. Deep wound were created all over her body. Though, of course, they weren't lethal. Eiro wasn't trying to turn this whole realm into a true enemy whatsoever. He was just trying to scare her a bit, and it seemed like that worked. The shaking naiad queen stared back at Eiro, confused.

"Wh-What's going on? Why would you...?" she asked, shivering from the pain and shock, but Eiro just glared at her silently.
