The recent developments had been... interesting. Dyn had expected them, there was no doubt about that. After all, he had deliberately avoided getting grappled by moving back a bit. What he had not expected was that nearly everyone else would be dumb enough to rush forward into the creature's waiting tentacles. For all that it was worth, this thing was no real kraken. Much too small. A spawn at best, though that meant they would not need to bring an entire fleet of pirates to do battle with it either. There was no need for a hasty retreat. After all, how could the perfect being be seen running from a stunted marine creature?

The crystal decorated eyepatch Dyn'yer'zhead used as his arcane focus glimmered once more as his magic began flowing through it. The Beholder's sonorous voice that always accompanied it speaking in its own native language rang out in the water as he ordered the opposing monstrosity to cease all movement. The magical energy shot off from his focus and embedded itself to the deepest reaches of the creature, flashing out along its surface and freezing every muscle of the would-be kraken. The Beholder grinned. That should tip the scales.
