A touch of shadows

I don’t remember what transpired, but it was undeniably dreadful.

As I sensed the blackness whirlwind in the chamber, I stood much beyond my consciousness. I could feel it forcing its way to seize my rein.

Something unholy, truly clear, and fractious.

It rejected their pleas inhumanely. The wails and howls became vague with each swirl and, before I could think of the rusty odor, I surrendered myself to the force that had me.

To remain shielded from the eyes of those who want to gain her and ones that could look through her.

but, following this rule is a little troublesome with danger approaching from all the sides and to top it all, things become tricky when the power threatens to control and beset her with the visions of annihilation, blood, and a pair of eyes that might destroy her life and her forever.
