"ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"
Trick's reading was interrupted by a resounding cry that echoed through the air.
He retracted his gaze from the texts, redirecting it towards the dark distance that loomed ominously ahead.
'Did someone just scream?' Trick pondered inwardly, but even before he was done with his line of thought, his legs tried to move on their own towards the source of the eerie shriek in a swift attempt to save its bearer.
As though he were stopped by an invisible force, Trick juddered into a pause, turning to stare at the writings beneath the monuments before alternating his gazes between both matters.
Trick gritted his teeth in a panicked hurry, giving the monuments one more pained look before turning his sights away from them.
"And just when things were starting to spice up."
He snuck a peek at the tempting writings once more, almost bursting out into tears from the disappointing gaze thrown at him by the insentient dragon sculpture.
