While the jungle noises were still too unfamiliar to her, something did catch her eye. She barely had time to yelp a warning before the jungle erupted- certainly not enough time to actually help anyone. Her own instinctive dodge carried her off the trail, but not out of harms way -- the large feet of the creature smashed her left knee and ankle to the ground with a sickening <em>snap</em>. She scrambled to the nearest tree and climbed up off the ground in her arachnid-like way and hurled a bolt of eldritch energy back towards the monster.
