(Scars do not appear to be cause of death –shock ... - Bad Request

my way. If I didn't rein things in now, letting Ignust loose upon the world
again would've been disastrous, "I set you free, and I may send you back to
your hell again."
"Think YOU could ch'ain Ignussss...?" The flames around Ignus swirled like a
cloak, then fanned outwards, as if seeking to caress me. "KILL you, turn you
to asssshessss Ignussss can... for now, Ignusssss followsssss... but
threatsssss... threatsss ANGER Ignusssss..."
"Actually, Ignus, you couldn't stop me - you could burn me, but I'd keep
coming at you until you were kindling. So enough with the threats..."
There was a crackling in the air, and Ignus cocked his head slightly, as if
studying me, then hissed. "FLAMESSSSS will burnnnn the immmortality from
you... you are NOT sssafe from my flamesssss..."
"Maybe you don't understand what immortality MEANS, Ignus..."
"You are NOT immmortal... Ignusssss can KILL you... ssscatter your
asssshesss to the windssss..." That said, Ignus flung his arms wide, and a
HEAT poured from him, so powerful that I was forced to shield my eyes -
there was a great ROARING, as the air fled past me as it was drawn into him.
"Ignus! Stop th -" I coughed, my face lashed with my own beaded locks.
As I tried to shout at Ignus to stop, the tide turned back upon itself, and a
blazing heat washed over me. I choked back a howl as my flesh started to
smolder, then smoke, then flare with the beginnings of PAIN... I clenched my
teeth, and over the pain, I could hear Ignus cackling... cackling, laughter
cracking like thunder...
"Ignus!"
At the sound of his name again the heat died - and I drew my arms back
from my face. The skin had blackened from where Ignus burned it... and
Ignus was watching me hungrily. Then I knew, more than anything, that
whatever Ignus was, whatever power that had embraced him, it had the
power to destroy me - if his flames were to kill me, my body would be
seared into white-hot ash, then torn apart by the flames and whipped into
naked, screaming atoms.
