Instinctively, Mathias stepped in front of me and shielded me with his arm. “‘Who goes there?’ Mathias shouted in a voice that was unafraid and full of authority. ‘Reveal yourself to me. I, Prince Vasran of the Varangaos, command you!” “From the undergrowth emerged a horrible creature. It stood on all fours but its rear legs were disproportionately taller than its front, so it held its head low and close to the ground. The fact that it was hairless all over added to its unnatural, scrawny appearance. It had the face of a bat with eyes that glowed red like coals, very large ears and jutting fangs. It was a sigbin.”

In which they were even flexible, like those of a snake, in the midst of their attacks, in which they left traces of other animal remains that left few pieces of irregular and grayfish tips.

In a moment of senseless betrayal, Shinzo realized that all the gossip she heard in the tavern and all the stories she heard as a child had been misunderstood.

Then she saw them. A more different creature than she was. Were these the men she had heard and read about? 'Those are evil dark creatures! With a deceitful spell, your soul they will possess' The warnings from the elderly women in the tribe blared in her head, she took an unwilling step backwards. None had noticed her, oh goddess! was her soul going to be taken by these evil creatures? She thought, and murmured a quick short prayer for her soul.

Philip put down his food and the kids all looked at him and paid attention, “some of the scrolls I found talked about the magic of the realm, the people and the creatures that roam the land,” “What kind of creatures?” Kurt asked. “Magnificent beasts of all shapes and sizes living on the land, in the water, and in the sky. These creatures aren’t like the animals here on Earth. They’re smarter and a lot more special because they all have a mystic ability unlike any animal you know of.

"I just hope he isn't like Oni. The last time they were here they made a mess. But Lukas is good friends with their King so we let it slide" I frowned, "What is Oni?" Leo sighed, "They are like Japanese ogre like creatures. Kinda scary because of their horns" I parted my lips in shock. There was so much I needed to learn. Lukas was annoying and obnoxious so I refuse to take help from him. But maybe Leo can help me understand all the creatures. I was still reeling from Hindu mythology. "How am I supposed to know about everyone?" "You need to learn" Leo said in a duh tone as he pushed his hands in his pants pocket, admiring the painting on the wall. Obviously Lauren did that.

He looked more closely and in horror, he realised that their heads and feet were backwards, facing away from the front of their torsos. He gasped. These were douens. He had heard of them before. They were said by village folk to be the spirits of those who died without being baptised or christened. He had thought them to be an old wive’s tale. They were able to mimic the cries and voices of people they had heard before so that they could lure people into the forest. Cory was trying to get away from them but was having trouble navigating in midair. Titan was trying to clear a path below her so she could fall into his arms without landing amidst the creatures who seemed to be trying unsuccessf

Her house is more a museum than a home. “Werewolves are the last supernatural creatures created, did you know?” She walks us to the oversized cushions, sitting down, and I follow suit. “Dragons and fairies are among the oldest beings to exist.” “My clan are descendants of the first.” She smiles, sharing with me her memories. “Created by the great…” And then she delves into a language full of consonants, I couldn’t decipher even if I lived forever. “Sorry, I should probably put it in terms you understand.
