📝 Description: Confrontation with the angels of death

Eliel Roshveder presents a narrative involving Igael and Tanegushi, two individuals attempting to utilize levitation powers. Their efforts fail as they remain pinned to the floor, described as being bound by immense weight. Tanegushi fires a pistol at them, but the bullets strike only the ceiling and a crystal lamp due to an echoing effect. Two scorpions then pass through the ceiling, their forms dissolving into matter before vanishing entirely. The incident alerts hotel security guards who invade the room to arrest the pair. A guest named Amadeu claims the two men are friends who saved him from murderers. The guards reject this explanation because no one else entered the room, and the doors remained closed. This account highlights themes of supernatural intervention, physical restraint, and conflicting testimonies in a confined space. Roshveder constructs a scene where reality bends under pressure, blending elements of gothic tension with sudden, unexplained phenomena. The text focuses on the immediate aftermath of a failed magical attempt and the subsequent misunderstanding with authority figures. It suits readers interested in short, intense episodes of supernatural fiction that prioritize atmospheric dread over plot resolution.
