Angis was tired, injured, and his thoughts drifted to his family. These distractions proved his downfall as the beast dove on him - he managed to avoid its gnarled teeth by getting an axe in its mouth, but that prevented him from hitting with it. But then it clawed at his chest and he felt his armour tear. He meant to hit it with his other axe, but his fingers were numb and the axe fell to the ground. He found himself on his back, and from above the snarling beast that was on him, he thought he saw a friendly face smiling down at him.Titus growled and pounced on the beast, trying to knock it off of the falling dwarf, but it kicked back at him with a clawed foot, scratching his new wolf-skin across his shoulder. Titus had seen a creature like this in an old ritual book. The details were fuzzy, but he remembered that the beast was made by a twisted ritual that transformed a natural animal into this unnatural beast of shadows. It was almost certainly the work of the Red Wizard.A javelin hurled by Enseth clattered off of the well's stone rim. The Shield Guardian recalculated future trajectory while searching his memory banks for the monster's weakness. The ritual that created it held a flaw: The beast could not abide daylight. In its quest for maximum power, the ritual's original designers had allowed the spell to be easily broken by exposure to light. He looked up and saw that the well's lattice-work travelled upward to a wooden ceiling, where the well (which was accessible from the work-house above) was covered by two wooden doors. He calculated that the afternoon sun would be perfectly suited to illuminate the well-room, should those doors be opened. Three methods appeared before his mind's eye - 1: Someone could run upstairs to the workhouse and open them. 2: Someone (lighter than him) could climb the wooden lattice-work and open them from here. 3: They could be blasted open.[GM]Damage Taken:(BGs) None!
