Thump! Thump!
Torq felt himself lost in a world of dread, feeling an overwhelming force slam into him. To his senses, it was like a geyser endlessly gushing out of the statue to form a kilometre tall tsunami.
This tsunami hadn't even crashed into him. It just poised itself, like a cobra ready to strike. And that caused Torq to grow so nervous, he waved his hand forward, intending to retaliate.
Thud!
Someone grabbed his arm, pausing his Nature activation. Torq returned to his senses, feeling as if the endlessly gushing tsunami had retreated, no longer poised to destroy him.
He felt momentary relief, only upon which did he look at the individual who had stopped him from launching an attack. It was a short man, slightly taller than him.
"Don't," The man shook his head, "Unless you wish to court death."
