Xiang watched the adventurers spring into action, clapping at their eagerness. [color=ed1c24]"Woohoo! Always good to see young adventurers spring into action![/color] Xiang was tempted to jump in and help, but she wanted to see what these people were capable of. She still took out her sword and got ready however, wings spreading from her back. [color=ed1c24]"Don't do too much damage! We'll have frog for dinner tonight!"[/color] Xiang took to the sky to observe the battle, taking note that in the distance someone else was getting attacked by giant toads too. She made a note to check on him since it seemed like he was by himself.

The toads reacted. The toad near the pier that was Quarel's quarry opened it's mouth wide, shooting it's long, sticky tongue right at the owl man. Should Quarel attempt to cut at the tongue, he'd find it much sturdier than one would expect; while his blades would cause the tongue to blood, it'll take much more force to slice the tongue clean in half. And should he fail to free himself soon, Quarrel would find himself inside the toad's mouth. Fortunately instead of teeth, the toad would simply begin crushing Quarrel with it's powerful jaw muscles. Which hurts about as bad as being beaten with hammers.

Meahwhile Rita's toad charged right at her. It leapt into the air with a mighty leap, expanding it's body to at least double it's size. So large that Rita's side-step wouldn't be enough to avoid being crushed underneath the toad's massive girth. Fortunately for her Anemone blitzed in and rescued her, albeit somewhat unintentionally. The toad was knocked back by the force of the blow and landed back into the water slightly dazed. It took a moment for the toad to regain it's barrings, which would give anyone just a moment to act while the toad's defense was down.

Meanwhile at Daveon's camp the two toads would proceed to launch their long sticky tongues at him, one aiming for his body and another at his legs. The charging toad would continue his charge regardless if he managed to strike Daveon with it's tongue, eventually crashing into the toad behind Daveon. With any luck he could react quickly enough to avoid both beasts, otherwise he'd find himself trapped between two very large, very hungry amphibians.
