Meanwhile...
The battle raged on as the remaining Nagas lunged forward, their hissing cries echoing in the misty air. Lila swung her glowing blue sword, parrying the strikes of a particularly fierce Naga. Her heart raced as she dodged its blows, but her body quivered under the mounting pressure.
The Naga snarled and lashed out with its tail, striking Lila square in the side. She cried out as the force sent her flying backward, landing hard in the mud. Her sword fell from her grasp, splattering into the muck beside her.
The Naga advanced, its jagged trident raised high for the finishing blow. Lila's breath hitched as she flinched, her hands rising instinctively to shield herself.
SCHLUNK!
