Mountain Ogre

The instant the torches went out, Owl and Sa both floated up, their feet leaving the ground.

Their reasons were different, however. Unable to see, Owl had instinctively floated up to avoid being attacked by an Eight-Treasure Snake, while Sa had seen one approaching and deliberately risen into the air.
