Dhul's eyes flashed with anger as the girl presumed to run from him. As she ducked into a mausoleum, he walked over to the tree, and placed his hand on the bark. A red glow surrounded him for an instant before the tree was uprooted and hovering a span from his stretched out hand. It suddenly and violently smashed into the side of the mausoleum. The building shuddered with the force of the blow, and the tree began to batter it down.
Suddenly, what she had said registered to him. The amulet had been a present from her late mother. Come to think of it, the girl did seem a bit familiar. He set the tree down and walked slowly towards the mausoleum. He entered, and looked around.
"You here child?" he asked. "I may have been a bit hasty earlier. I'm...sorry." He waited for a reply.
