Chapter 48: An Old Precog

The rustle in the forest proceeds, till a figure made of shadow is visible.

Celine bears her claws and fangs, ready to attack whomever may be trying to cause us harm.

But when the figure steps into the light, her features show her to be an elderly woman.

Emphasis on the elderly.

She is covered in wrinkles, her long hair is paper white, and her wrinkled skin is covered in spots.

Nothing seems off about her, save for her incredible height.

Despite hunching over and using a walking staff, she is still quite tall, probably 6 feet.

"What do you want?" Celine asks her.

"Oh, what a rude child." She says, making her way towards us.

"Don't come any closer."

"Why are you so afraid, do you think a frail old woman like me could cause you harm?" She keeps walking to us, something about her makes me anxious.

"Take one more step, and I won't wait to find out." Celine growls.

And the woman stops.
