Lorcan
Lorcan could feel the tension in his spine as they moved closer to the sound of rushing water. He tightened his jaw. Something was coming. Again.
“I sense a presence,” he said in a low voice. “Something is waiting for us.”
Niarok met his gaze warily. “What is it?”
Lorcan stretched out his senses, feeling the shift and pull of the molecules in the darkened cave. His skin crawled as he sensed something that wasn’t emitting carbon dioxide. Something big.
“We move forward,” he rasped. “There’s no turning back now.”
Niarok gave a sharp nod of affirmation.
They continued down the damp, rocky path. Rounding a corner, they entered a large cavern. Stalactites and stalagmites rose up above them. And at the back, something watched them from the shadows.
As they stood there with bated breath, the creature raised its bat-like wings.
Lorcan couldn’t help but let out a low whistle. “Finally. Things are becoming interesting again.”
His blades slowly slid out from his sleeves, making smooth metallic sounds as they were unsheathed. He didn’t take his gaze off the creature now ambling towards them as he said under his breath to Niarok, “Here’s the plan. I go left. You go right. Sound all right?”
hope i got Niarok right here 🙂 I’m a bit stuck for dialogue so I just threw in another monster LOL
