Noorh cursed under his breath as Kiran intercepted the gaping mouth of the winged serpent in front of him. He quickly snapped his fingers, eyeing the twig that he wasn't able to break off. A magic circle erupted around the twig before it burst into bluish purple flames.
Thick dark smoke shot up from the tip of the flame like a fountain as Noorh grabbed Kiran. He slammed her against his chest and trapped her there with his left arm. He then waved his right hand in front of them, summoning another huge magic circle. But instead of gathering white clouds toward his palm, it gathered the thick dark smoke from the burning twig. It created a thick black wall that shielded them from the angry winged serpent.
"Hold on to me," he shouted, already moving his outstretched hand to the side and aiming for the nests.
