Artemis's shout cuts through the air in the cavern and echoes back from a dozen tunnel entrances:
"WITH ME" "WITH ME" "WITH ME!" After the first sharp attack the echoes die away, but you can still hear them rumbling around in the tunnels. You have the unsettling feeling that the words will never truly fade, but will chase each other around the twisting passages for an eternity.
You also have the unsettling feeling that, if there's anything alive in the passages, they certainly know where you are now...

Sure enough, you hear a snuffling sound and something lumbers around the corner, sniffing at the ground. It's a large four-legged beast with powerful digging claws, like a
cross between a pig and a bear. The
creature brushes past you and halts on the threshold of the tunnel, staring down towards the cluster of humans as if in shock. Then it grunts, backs away, and turns to gallop away down the tunnel.
You notice that its rear paws are covered with mud. Surface mud? You can only hope.
