[i]The Magna Pater was curled within the gnarled branches of a skeletal alder tree, observing the taken as they fled. It had yet to eat, and it sensed a new presence drawing near. Not near enough. It reached up and snapped one of the larger branches with a resounding *[b]CRUK[/b]* before pressing its soggy mass more firmly against the bark, blending in. 

It waited to see if any would be drawn closer by the noise. [/i]
