[QUOTE="Urko, post: 2736895, member: 30822"] [b]Interlude - Erin and Sanae dream[/b] [i]Erin and Sanae find themselves in a disembodied state, floating just above their own sleeping bodies. Dargin is nearby, stirring fitfully against Malk. Hlal's open eyes stare at nothing and his tongue hangs limply from his mouth, its occasional flick the only sign that the lizardfolk is still alive. Eff Flat fiddles quietly with his dagger flutes, piecing together endless combinations of melody. 'He has no name' stands a short distance off, a spear in his hand and a mangy hound pressed desperately against his feet. Matilda sleeps in angry solitude under a tree a little ways beyond. And there is something else. A huge, terrible shape melts from the dark line of trees, taking form as it draws closer. A random assortment of eyes in a misshapen head; a long, coiling body; two enormous cruel claws. The creature moves silently past Matilda and 'He has no name,' who does not appear to even notice it. The end of its tail swipes across Eff Flat's face, but the copper-skinned bard pays it no heed. With a triumphant growl, it's lobster-like claws open above the helpless paladin and artificer. Ern and Sanae have no voice to shout out a warning, or even to scream in terror. The pinchers close... And strike a green barrier that suddenly materializes between the monster and its would-be victims. The thing hisses in fury and tries again and is again denied its prey. The green glow grows in size, pushing the creature back, back, beyond any of the sleepers. With a howl of frustration, the creature disperses into the darkness.[/i] [/QUOTE]
