Azrael had decided it was time to stretch her wings. She had refrained from doing so in front of the students. Her true form could be quite unnerving to some. So she had come to the Dark Woods. There was a mist covering the ground, and the place even smelled of darkness, that is if darkness had a smell. She quickly removed her dress and placed it in a pack she had brought with her. And then her transformation began. Her limbs lengthened a bit. Her eyes seemed to glow even more than normal. Her usual grey eyes were shining like molten silver. Her hair changed into plumes of feathers, her arms began to sprout feathers and transform into wings. Her hands and feet grew scales and claws turning into dreadfully dangerous looking talons. Azrael could feel herself become more at ease with her surroundings. Harpies didn't have many natural enemies in this part of the world. Really their only natural enemy were sirens. In her personal opinion Azrael felt sirens were dreadful creatures. With her transformation complete Azrael tested her wings, giving them an experimental beat. Then she lifted off from the ground, soaring through the woods. After a while she decided to land in a tree. It's twisted and gnarled branches extended close to the ground. She felt her talons wrap around the rough bough, finding her equilibrium.
