Gavriel stood up where he fell, as if turning himself into the wall that would be protecting and shielding Evie and his men from any attacks of the dark fae itself.

"All of you… enter the dungeons! Leave this creature to me!" Gavriel said without turning back to look at them. His gaze was firmly fixed on the slowly approaching dark fae.

"No! You're coming with us!" It was Evie who screamed out with a broken voice. "We're not going to leave you!!! Gavriel!!" Evie who was held back by Leon, had her arms outstretched, trying to rush forward and grab Gavriel.

Gavriel was silent for a moment but when he turned to look at her, everyone held their breaths. Gavriel's eyes were now looking even more strangely different. It was incandescent but there was just something different and inexplicable about it. Evie had seen him looking like that when she saw him back in the dungeon. However, as she observed, it somehow seemed similar, yet something was terribly off.
