"I have to tell you how basilisk venom works…" And having said that, without another word, the bastard just vanished.
Shit! SHIT! Shit…Kalina searched in vain with her keen, flawless dragon eyes. Where was that son of a bitch?! However, there was no trace of Ismir. She couldn't see him, couldn't smell him, nor could she sense his presence anymore. Kalina continued searching even as a tremor coursed through her massive body, making the ground tremble around her. Nanda was by her side two seconds later.
"Kalina…" Someone called out to her.
Ender?
"Kal?!" Had she heard Irion? Kalina wondered, then she tried to move towards the familiar voice. However, her hind legs gave way, and she collapsed onto her side. Oh, shit… Her vision was blurring. Valian… she thought. She had to help Valian. Ahh… And she was going to tear that bastard Ismir to shreds. Damn him! "Kal, seriously? For the love of the heavens?!"
