Throne of the Peacock Angel Salim Khalid

"A mysterious radiance slowly developed in the dark alley, growing in intensity, gradually taking the form of an alluring full-bodied woman with ghostly braided locks, startling everyone, including Worthy Deen. The specter was as translucent and elusive as a wisp of fog, sparkling with eldritch power. Her fluttering robes gave the appearance of soft, fuzzy, white light. Her features were indistinct but captivating, and her bare, ghostly feet spurned the filth of the walkway over which she floated, eerily peering at the gathering."
