Unlike many of the others, Pallidus is certainly not used to the sensation of falling further than to his knees. That, coupled with the dazzling display of fighting prowess and raw, unfathomable power, made this experience tenfold as terrifying. Pallidus would hardly call himself a coward but there was no hiding the way his grey skin faded further to almost white while he struggled to simply comprehend everything around him.

Terror driving him to instinct, Pallidus' fingers once again turned to claws, unable to stop himself from digging them into meat of Aziraphale's hand. The poor penguin on Pallidus' other side also had to deal with a bit of pain, though the creature was probably somewhat grateful just to have someone trying to hold it aloft. Pallidus would need to apologize later.

Tyzias Entykk. What are you really?
