It was hardly hot or dangerous enough to count as an active attack. But she wouldn’t want it rolling on top of her, either. Her intrusion seemed to finally enrage the creature and it began to wildly thrash around, streaming oil everywhere. A human opponent doing the same thing would be an easy victory, but such an unwieldy, massive creature was unpredictable. If Karin misstepped, she could take steaming oil to the face. But she wasn’t going to just sit here and let this thing have a tantrum. Even in its wild thrashing, attacking at max power and in as many directions as possible had a pattern! Her inexperienced eyes would just have to find it on a monstrous body. Midna would clear the way, as her magic sand doused flame and her blunt objects battered the beast at regular intervals.

She zipped around the legs and under the strikes of the Slippy. Now on the opposite side of the creature, she planted her foot and turned into a hard stop, throwing all of her momentum into her front arm. She struck up into the rear flank of the creature, and with a crunch, looked to shunt it forward and onto its face. Even for a moment! Hopefully it would allow Geralt, the monster hunter, to put a bow on the situation he’s been stuck in much too long for Karin’s liking.
