In the smallest, darkest corner of my room I felt it, that vile creature of darkness. It's form was intangible, it lacked power to produce a solid form.

Its vile power leaked out into the room like a pungent odor and like it it's power was suffocating.

"Dwyera I can feel it" Glynda whispered, her eyes focused into the same corner I was glaring at.

"Yeah and I can see it, the vile beast."

I could feel it's eyes glaring at me as I glared back at it. Then I felt it dissolve into the darkness.

Producing such a form in its weakened state was taxing to it, but it wanted to drive a fear into my heart.

It was if it was saying "yes I'm here and I'm coming for you, I'm growing stronger and more powerful, and soon I will come."

As soon as it vanished we both relaxed. We returned to some semblance of relaxation.

Though a thought lingered on.
It's coming, and soon.
