His eyes narrowed, the speculation drawn, the inward pressing for machinations beginning to spring back into his mind. Determined not to fall back into that common stance, the beast continued his roaming, digging in deeper, permitting the flames to flare higher, seeing if that would gauge any reaction from the reindeer.
He could see a herd of unicorns in the distance, striving to find their grazing terrain through the snow. It was tempting to drive his onslaughts their way and scatter them simply by predacious, ravenous standards; but with Zuriel tied so intricately into his soul, he didn’t bother them. Instead, he offered a long, low howl, a piercing sort of thing meant to simmer into bones, greeting them as they passed – thundering along in their haste for speed.
The Sword shifted them again, launching over two barrows in the barreling, nonsensical pathways, before a rapid directional change – seeing if she could handle the sudden disparity.
