Meh, Auriel's gonna be taking a while with this. He sees it as a battle of attrition, and he'll stay up all night hacking at vines and bushes to kill this thing if he has to. 

And he WILL kill this thing, even if he has to do it alone, or die doing it. 

Esayo, I think we're legitimately going to have to fight this thing with just the two of us. Banzai.
