Abomination #2
It slithers through the illuminated chambers. Long arms pulling itself further within the maze. Dry skin rubs against the carved stone like quills on parchment paper. Quick mourning calls echo and distort off the walls. The copper crystal lanterns show a distorted shadow, it slowly makes its way around head bobbing, weaving and snapping.
It turns the corner and the mind reels. Twin blue jays heads perch on a thick neck, multiple beady eyes swivel and fix on objects of interest. One head constantly warbles and shrieks the other stone silent and concentrated. Long muscular arms end in hooked bird claws for hands, flexing and twitching with barely wired nerves. Sky blue feathers run down a puffed chest and make way for the speckled skin underneath. A long, thick yellow and black tail runs behind the horror.
The quiet head fixes its gaze then slowly drags the head with it. The mourning calls turn to a distorted screech as it rushes forward.
