VALERIA
I had only ever heard of them in children's horror stories .
They were almost impossible to find , and nearly no one had survived after seeing them .
Beings of pure dark energy and evil rotting , murderous magic .
Its red eyes , like two deep abysses filled with flames , stare at me from that shapeless face , making me tremble in fear .
Its body was made of a black mist , with long , dangling strands that hung from every part of it as it advanced toward me .
It's arms were far too long , disproportionate , with massive , razor sharp claws that could slice me clean through .
I crawled backward , dragging myself across the ground .
I couldn't feel my legs .
My heart was pounding so fast I thought it would stop at any moment .
I tried to get up multiple times , failing each
