"Bring that carriage back up and get those herbs lit again!"
We couldn't even celebrate the killing of this strong monster since another let loose a far deeper, far more menacing roar from somewhere nearby, causing Anput and I to scramble over to where she had buried the carriage so that we could hopefully keep that monster away.
As we did so, Lilith just chuckled softly at Lady Fenyras' haste to get that herb lit again, the black Demoness grinning from the side as she said "I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but that monster is too close and too strong to give a damn about some herbs. Still, do get them burning; the others are far enough away to be dissuaded from coming here."
Having a bomb like that dropped right at our feet made us all freeze for a moment as dread washed over us; yes, we took care of the tiger with relative ease, but if something stronger than that was coming and it was that close, could we take it down before it dealt any damage at all?
