With the group charging in, or gaining distance from the beast, the surroundings grew silent, apart from the heavy breathing of the beast and the rumbling sounds, whenever the tail hit the ledge the beast was leaning on. As the bolt dashed through the air, hitting in the mass of skulls, Emilia reached the beast and dug the blade into the body. Besides hitting bones and skin alike, the blade dug through without a problem, drawing black, undead blood from the beast.

It screamed. The ooze seeped through the injury in the eye socket, making large drops of the horrid smelling liquid. The head brushed against the ground and moved to look for the attacker, spotting Idan just on the ledge below. The stinging further below the body was ignored. With a deep breath, the beast's body grew a little, as it dropped down, claws ready to pierce the rock. It clung to the ledge the main group was standing on, a claw very close to hit Emilia. With another roar, the beast sprayed the ooze from it's eyes.
