I'm gonna say this is up to you. The auroch is slowly but surely approaching. Pepper could either do the latter plan now while it's still some distance away, or she could wait until it's close enough and do the former.

Got it. Thank you!

In this case, Pepper will wait for the Auroch to get close enough, and then she'll enact her plan to cauterize the wound with her spell.
