~Babil, 6115 a.d. Day 170~
Latifa immediately jumped to the side. One of the spiny legs of the monster stabbed down at where Latifa had previously been standing, creating a hole in the ground. As Latifa was looking up at the monster, she caught a glimpse of another monster as well.
A lean creature on four legs. Fur the colour of snow. It had nine tails with green tips. The monster stood on the wall, its eyes locked on Latifa. The moment she made eye contact, she was filled with a sense of dread.
She slashed at one of the monster's legs, her daggers only managing to scratch the tough carapace of the monster. She could feel an attack coming, but the room was so cold that her movements were slowing down. Latifa got knocked aside as the monster swept one of its legs at her. She slammed into a nearby wall with a grunt.
