The snake reared backwards as the spear drove in a little deeper, eager to escape the way it was tearing up it's insides. It slashed at the air a few times, fast enough to whistle in the air, but they were wild. hissing, opening it's mouth wide, it found itself pinned against the wall of the cave as Sef pushed it away. The fight slowly drained from it, weakly swiping in an attempt to knock the spear away.

Meanwhile, Joachim was smarting from being knocked to the floor. Though his knee didn't feel so great from getting knocked on the ground, it was his pride that hurt most of all. He stood and watched the struggle between Sef and the snake thing, feeling uncertain. The wooden staff was laying on the floor beside the campfire. Instead of reaching for it, he reached into the campfire with his black hand, feeling nothing. He took aim at the pinned beast, waiting, and threw just as it opened it's mouth once more. The burning chunk went straight in, and the snake gulped it down in surprise.
