Ba-dum. Ba-dum. Ba-dum.
Each heartbeat feels heavier than the last as I struggle to remain standing.

And the purple and black flames surrounding my body slowly begin fading until only small traces remain around my arms.
The black and purple scales also begin disappearing one after another, breaking apart slowly.

My legs nearly give out beneath me.

It is quite comforting to be able to hear your voice again. That transformation pushed me far beyond what my body could naturally handle.
