I was shocked, this paladin was starting to scare me - a threat for the group?
Wolfy jumped into position and stood in front of Jolie, teeth bared severely, neck bristling and saliva dripping. I was secretly very thankful for my faithful companion.
"Get a grip on you, man! Calm down, I just want to take a closer look..." Drawing the R&p rune in the air I flung it at the ruby - it cracked open and then I saw something crawling out.... something terribly evil... unspeakably ugly, changing its form, colour and status every second - trying to hover, crawl move over to Jolie.
"Jolie, stay back - all of you: STAY BACK!"
I used my flame rune, combined it with R&P and sparks and I don't know what else, included a circling end to it and flung it on that "creature".

It flared up, the explosion singed my hair, coat, after the rumble had disappeared I gaped at the blackened hole on the ground and saw.... nothing. Where was it gone? Was it nearby? Would it return? I was scared and insecure, but determined not to let it show.
"Uff, Jolie, are you ok?"
He had collapsed again.
Hmph, paladins don't take commotion very easily
