I continued to rub the Nundu as I noticed a shadowy mist appear at the edge of the roof and corporealize into Dad. Though he was a bit worse for wear; the clothes where the tail impacted him was shredded, blood was slowly dripping from the area, and there was a slight indent in his chest. When he noticed the scene of me petting the cat caused him to be gobsmacked. It was a great relief to see that Dad was safe. Mum was going to chew our arses because of how close we were to dying. I couldn’t imagine what it would have been like if I had to tell her he was gone.
