A musical cry began to fill the Chamber as Fawkes flashed in and swooped down on Sandrine. The firebird attacked the snake’s eyes; biting, clawing, and tearing at the sensitive tissue. Sandrine roared in pain and thrashed her head about trying to dislodge her attacker. Fawkes flew off revealing her shredded and bleeding eyes. Briallen’s heart broke at the sight of her friend’s injuries, "I swear on everything I have that I will get you fixed up after this is over, Sandrine."
