Restoring the Light, Facing the Dark || Closed RP with burden-and-truth
Slow.
The huntress listened to the hushed voice of her instincts, her feet inching almost achingly slowly over the ground. She didn’t quite blend in with her surroundings anymore, her light blue garments and golden hair making her stand out amongst the greenery she called home. Not that it mattered, anyway; the spirit of darkness she was hunting was preoccupied digging up the dirt in front of it. This entire place reeked of it, and her spear hummed lowly, ready to purge the area of corruption.
Once she got close enough, the huntress sprung to life, taking the creature by surprise. The humming of her spear increased in pitch, but was masked by the frightened cries of her target. They were quickly silenced, though, as her spear found its mark, pinning it against the tree behind it. It gave a couple more pitiful cries before its essence completely dissipated, along with the darkness that tinged the nature around her. Pulling her spear from the bark in the tree, the ascended huntress passed her hand over it to heal what damage she’d done.
As her power collected in her palm however, something else caught her attention. Her nose still tingled with the smell of corruption, but it was... Different. Less potent, maybe even warped. Pupils narrowed into slits at the thought of another being hanging around despite her having made quick work of the other one. Quickly restoring the crack in the bark where her spear had viciously embedded itself, she followed her nose, once again on the hunt.
