As you approach the flailing appendage, a feeling of aprehension grows. The sheer size of the limb makes it a dangerous thing. Without even trying, a stray blow could be crippling! The massive claws continue to shred the earth as you approach. The storm overhead illuminates your surroundings in brief flashes as lightning bolts split the sky. The heavy rain soaks you quickly and makes the ground slick.
You pick your way over and around shattered beams from the destroyed building until you are close enough to observe the limb in detail. The bones are thick and grey, fossilized by a millenia of being buried. Hard as stone now, your weapons would shatter long before you did more than scratch the surface. Running down the bones however are thick strands of sinew, as big around as ship mooring lines. They strain and flex with each movement of the limb and look like they could be severed easier than the stone can be sundered. Still buried in the cliff side, some dozen feet above you is the protruding shoulder of the beast. The stone around it cracks and falls to the ground with each movement. The area all around it is covered with sharp, jagged chunks of stone. In a flash of lightning, you catch the glint of a dark reflective surface embedded near the shoulder joint. It must be the eberron crystal, the node that controls this arm!
Over the din of the moving arm and crash of thunder, you can hear shouts of alarm from men all over the camp. It's hard to tell, but it sounds like they're trying to organize a party to approach the arm.

Let's get initiatives to get things in order. I'll assume Midian heals Kraken again while you're moving. I will work up a map soon, ran out of time this morning.
Kraken is down 37 hp (17 remaining)
Doral is down 17 hp
Glaive is down 4 hp
Midian is down 4 hp
Whisper is down 3 hp
Garuk is at 2 hp
