The head spins further than any head should be able to naturally. But there was no sound other that something similar to that of sandpaper rubbing against another object. And the same sound had reached Kent's ears again when the neck spun back into place in an eerie fashion. Immediately, the figure lashed out with its dagger again, this time at the weak point in the armor beneath Kent's right shoulder. The storm let up more, showing some of the figure's face. It wasn't Vernon at all, just hardened ash sculpted to look like him. It was an ashen double. A fake. After the attack on the shoulder, regardless of rather or not it failed, the double immediately drops its level and attempts to stab the back of Kent's knee that didn't have Despair driven through it.
