Kaleeth had a difficult time concentrating on what Vera was saying, as she was mostly just trying to maintain her faculties. However, as soon as she hearth the phrase, "you have my permission," she was relieved to be able to stop fighting it. She gave in willingly to let loose her beast spirit, which would hopefully mean she could retain at least some measure of control. She dropped her weapon and shield, while her armor fell off at the points that Janius had helped her design. At first, the hunters' frontline was not concerned at what they thought was another werewolf entering the fight, as they were well-trained to deal with them, but as she grew even larger, a few took notice. Instead of growing fur, her scales thickened and her tail lengthened. Her muscles mass grew exponentially, while her head and neck grew wider to accommodate the exceptionally powerful jaw muscles. By the time the transformation was over, she was the single most massive being on the battlefield, though Kaleeth herself was not entirely in control. She could move her muscles, but her will was more of a suggestion. Her beast spirit would determine what to do if she did not satisfy it. Once Kaleeth was in werecrocodile form, the defense's frontline was quick to make space for her to charge. Her beast spirit likely would have forced her to, even if they had not. As she ran forward, she swiped her arm at the spears the enemy raised to her. For a werewolf, it was an attack that would likely end with one or more gashes on the arm, but against Kaleeth, her scales were merely singed by the silver. As her hide was much thicker and tougher, it took stronger, more direct strikes to penetrate her natural armor. Simple slashes could not cut through. Against werewolves, the hunters were trained to stagger their shields and help brace each other so their formation could resist their greater strength, but when Kaleeth's arm slammed against one of the hunter's shields, the sheer force overpowered him, and those helping to brace behind him, to knock them off their feet. The spearmen on either side of the hole both turned their focused to Kaleeth. One of the thrusts hit at too much of an angle and glanced off, but the one to Kaleeth's left managed to thrust the spearhead into her abdomen, though as he did not know how much he needed to commit to the strike, it did not go quite as deeply as he expected. On reflex, Kaleeth, swiped at the spear, snapping its shaft in the middle, though it ripped the spearhead out rather harshly. The pain enraged her, so instead of pouncing on those on the ground, she roared and rushed the one who wounded her. The spearman raised his shield for protection, but much to his misfortune, Kaleeth intended to bite. She snapped down on his round, handed shield with almost unbelievable force. The steel bands were not enough to resist her massive jaws, so the wooden core snapped in two while the steel bands that had been reinforcing it bent around the two halves. Latching onto his arm, Kaleeth pulled him out of formation, stabbed her claws into his chest, then used them as leverage to rip his arm from is body. She spat out the remains of the shield, swallowed his arm, then released him to die of blood loss. At the moment, Kaleeth was not fighting entirely like a beast, but she had far less control than the other lycans. One with the proper knowledge could use that to slay her, but she did have some advantage in this situation. Namely, unless most of the hunters had spent time in Black Marsh, few of them would have any practical experience dealing with werecrocodiles. Despite their strength and durability, werecrocodiles certainly had weaknesses that could be exploited. With agility an maneuverability, a team of hunters could surround and slay them without giving them a chance to respond, but if there were any experienced werecrocodile hunters among the enemy, they would know this was one of the worst environments apart from a river in which to fight one. With so many warriors filling the tight corridors, and the defenders supporting Kaleeth, there simply was not enough space to outmaneuver her. However, given her lack of inhibitions, Kaleeth still could not expect to get through unscathed, if she survived at all. Even from the back of the mercenaries' lines, Meesei could see Kaleeth transform on the other side. This did mean that the defenders were still alive and fighting, but the battle must be desperate for Kaleeth to be picking up arms. It was good that the warband was now here to reinforce them. They had the mercenaries surrounded, but Meesei did not know if the defense was yet aware of that fact. As such, she decided it would be best to tell them herself. Meesei's body started to charge with lightning for a few moments, until she released it into a spell of lightning form. From head to toe, her flesh looked as if it were made of pure lightning, which would both arc out to nearby foes, and protect her like armor, though to a lesser extent than a shield spell. From there, she sprinted forward at a group of mercenaries who were clambering to form a shield wall on their flank, then, when she was almost upon them, used a spell of bolt escape. The spell allowed her to dash forward essentially as a bolt of lightning, shocking any who she passed through nonlethally, but enough to briefly stun. She passed through several rows of the enemy and reappeared in the very middle of their force. Obviously, she was surrounded on all sides, but while the mercenaries were now aware that they were fighting on two fronts, the very last thing those in the middle were expecting was for a naked Argonian made of lightning to suddenly appear directly beside them. Lightning arced out from Meesei in all directions, which was again not lethal, but enough to wound, and certainly surprise, the enemies immediately beside her. Taking advantage of the opportunity, Meesei stabbed her bound blade through the stomach of a swordsman to her right, then used bolt escape to dash away just as quickly as she arrived. After another dash, Meesei appeared directly behind two of the mercenaries' frontline spearmen. With a quick blast of telekinetic energy, she caused the pair to stumble forward into the spears of the defenders. Since her bolt escape had briefly stunned those behind her, she was able to join the defensive line before they could recover to attack her. "The warband has returned; now is the time to counterattack!" Meesei shouted.
