Description

I really enjoy to write, so I'm going to write a description of a mythical creature I am currently using in a book that I'm writing. The post also includes the description of the surrounding forest. The creature, by the way, is called a mngwa.

The night sky was beautiful. The stars shimmered and danced in the sky as I watched the tiger creature standing alone in the forest-surrounded clearing. The cat was beautiful; it had granite grey fur that could only be seen by the light of the bright moon. Jet black stripes were slashed down its majestic back, legs, and long tail. Its green eyes were shining like emeralds, and they narrowed at the sight of me. I stared back, frightened but trying to act bold. It looked away after a moment, twitching its ears and lengthy whiskers as if it knew I wasn't a threat. Instead, it turned away and looked around the clearing it was standing in. The clearing was small, with soft green grass swaying gently in the breeze. Surrounding the whole area, surrounding both of us, were the tall birch and oak trees that made up the forest. Mesmerized by this strange beast that I had found, I stepped further into the clearing. It didn't notice anything until I clumsily tripped over a small broken branch on the ground, causing an earsplitting sound. CRACK! The tiger spun around to face me, its massive paws shifting as it crouched down about forty feet from me. A feral snarl ripped from its throat, passing between its bared teeth. I froze, not daring to move. It glared at me for a moment more before tasting the air. Then it turned away and walked into the darkness, its beauty unmatched by any nocturnal beast I had ever seen before. I ran for my life; even the most beautiful things in the world can be deadly...
