[i]The Magna Pater heard no squeal. It squeezed again. Nothing but air. Its victim had escaped. It was still so disoriented by the flash that it knew not at what point the little one had gotten free. Either way, it was too late now to retreat. It had to deal with the dragon before she got a second wind. 

If she got a second wind.

It knew that Saaria didn't even know if it had still hung around, or if she knew that Cia had escaped. The dragon would probably try to make sure everything was incinerated just in case. Salmu Pulhu surged forwards straight at the dragon, smacking aside and slaying the hapless Taken with a single blow along the way and paying no heed to the noise it made at top speed. If it were to eat this night, or on any other again, the horror's devilish strategy would need to be perfect.[/i]
