The Dragonspire Canyon - 4

After Simon and Paul's choices, the group spent the night camping with no issues. Now, only a short distance from the canyon, they could rest more easily. Thankfully, the barrier created by Arinea and Levia kept the disturbed beasts and monsters away. 

However, as they approached the canyon, the flowers and flora became thicker, and the stems darkened and became filled with sharp spines, twisting around the normal trees.

"Hey, look at this strange plant... it's funny." 

Erika pointed to a dark purple flower with a bell-shaped bud attached to the trunk of a silver tree, but the veins and stem continuously undulated every few moments.

"It's a dangerous plant, don't touch it!" 

—Gasp~

Arinea grabbed Erika's wrist, suddenly causing her to gasp. The purple flower stem suddenly grew another purple vine that lunged for the demon knight, but thanks to Arinea, she avoided the bell-shaped cup with sharp thorns inside like teeth.
