Sure enough, as he steps into the room, the form of the marilith appears, though it's shadowy and insubstantial... much the way the remains of the taint of Kyuubi looked, after his body was destroyed. The only thing of her body that isn't insubstantial inky blackness is her eyes, a malevolent, blood red. Verdelet's twin tridents, one on each side, and pair of wicked-looking longswords are easily identifiable, as well; this looks like it's going to be a brutal fight.<br/><br/>Especially when, silently, she shimmers, and seems to split into five copies, around the room; only his training with Ama allows him to see that the other four are illusions, albeit shadow illusions, and, as such, more than partially real... and potentially quite dangerous.
