When dealing with evil, you'll often find that you need only mention it by one of its many names to arouse its interest.

A wind picks up suddenly. It's cold, and in some way, dark. Snow is lifted off the frozen ground, sent to scatter near the hooves of the gathered three. The wind doesn't stop though. It blows harder, digging against the arch and the tundra until ice is kicked up and thrown into the air. It's sent like knives to cut against their skin and settle in their marrow. The wind doesn't stop. A rising howling, akin to a ragged moaning, draws across the land of desolation. With a steady, rapid increase it becomes a scream which grows in volume, until there is nothing. No wind, no ice, no noise.

SLAP!

The wet, broken sound of a body meeting the ground with high velocity rings out after the brief lull of silence. Centered between the three, the mangled corpse of a pegasus lies in a heap of flesh and bone. Crimson seepage mingles through the compact ice, spreading in size and aroma. It shudders, as though taking one final, ruined breath, before vanishing.

It falls two more times, just like that. The wind remains still. The air has cleared. All that remains of the incident is the stain of blood, a horrific contrast to the pristine environment.
