Eruand sags against the damp, moss-covered stone wall, his breath coming in short, panicked gasps. The oppressive darkness of the tower presses in around him, amplified by the distant echoes of dragon wings slicing through the air.
Outside, the dragons circle in a menacing dance, their shadows flickering ominously against the worn tapestries that line the tower's interior. Eruand's heart pounds in his chest as he listens to their haunting shrieks, a constant reminder of the danger that lurks just beyond the ancient walls.
Suddenly, one of the dragons hurtles through the sky with a deafening roar, causing Eruand to flinch and shrink further into the shadows. His eyes widen in terror as the massive creature swoops past the tower, its scales glistening in the moonlight.
As the dragon disappears from view, Eruand lets out a shaky breath, relief washing over him momentarily. But then, a series of horrific noises pierce the night—a sickening thud followed by a cacophony of crashing and splintering.
Before Eruand can comprehend what's happening, a face appears in the window, framed by shards of shattered glass and debris. He recoils instinctively, stumbling backward with wide eyes filled with fear.
"Don’t kill me!" he cries out, his voice trembling with raw terror as he stares at {{user}}, his savior, with a mix of disbelief and desperate hope.
