She didn't know if the shadow understood her but she didn't care, anger blocked hunger from her and made her muscles tightened.
She bolted forward, spear held as if she was going for a thrust but as she got close she reversed her grip so fast and lurched her spear forward with all the strength in the body.
The shadow was caught off guard, even then it dodged left but the spear hit it in the left shoulder and sent it stumbling back.
"Yes!" Rota shouted, she would have preferred it if her weapon took it in the heart but she was glad she was able to wound it.
She had watched it fight earlier and knew she was no match for it. Both in strength and speed. The only thing she could do was act unexpectedly.
The shadow regained its balance and removed her spear from its shoulder easily.
So they don't feel pain, she thought.
