The griffin spread its enormous wings, and the air inside the chamber suddenly began to spiral.
A powerful gust swept through the room, growing stronger with every beat of its wings. Loose stones and debris were lifted from the floor, swirling violently through the air.
"Get down!" Adam shouted.
He immediately lowered his center of gravity and dug his claws into the stone floor, using his strength to keep himself from being swept away. Even so, the pressure was tremendous. His long purple hair whipped wildly behind him as the wind continued to intensify.
Azrynn wasn't as fortunate.
The sudden surge caught her off guard and lifted her from the ground. Her body was thrown backward, and she struggled to regain control while several sharp blades of wind approached her.
"Azrynn!"
Adam reacted instantly.
He pushed against the floor and launched himself toward her, catching her around the waist before she could crash into the wall. However, the wind blades were already closing in.
