"The gargoyle rose with a crunch, spread its wings and jumped down. It's real! And since it's real, it means it's unlikely that it just flew by by accident! I tried to get up, but the gargoyle landed on the slab right in front of me and I couldn't resist, shamefully I plopped down on my butt. The demons are with him, I’m not proud, I won’t leave on my own two feet, so at least I’ll crawl away... Mom! The gargoyle leaned towards me so sharply, with lightning speed, that I instinctively recoiled, buried the back of my head in the hard slab and, as a result, finally stretched out under creature. The gargoyle, resting one hand on the stone near my face, brought its muzzle almost close to me with dark gray eyes, shining like granite chips, without white. “No appeal to the elements!” the creature roared.
