In a moment her eyes too went still, muscles turned jade, locking her view forward in the rough direction of the serpent. Her ears flicked, the last movements she could make before they twitched no more- becoming stone to match the rest of her new form.
She felt as though she had been packed in solid lead, or cast into the crushing depths of the sea as the stone settled in and around her, turning denser and denser, crackles and pops ringing and echoing about inside her as the magick finalized.
The sensation of squeezing turned to a muted numbness, leaving her set upon the spot where she had stood, still and quiet.
Her view was preserved, somehow… as was her mind… a dulled sense of hearing and touch, she was more or less all there, albeit stuck within an inanimate form.
Mercury Shine was alone now…
Alone with her thoughts.
Alone to contemplate her fate here in the Everfree Forest.
