The water around the collapsed creature became muddied with its colorful blood, seeping from the gaping hole left through its head.
"It's finished?" Charlotte asked as though surprised at how quickly it was put down.
Jasper nudged his boot against the side of the fallen creature, "Yup. That's pretty dead."
While Finn brushed the droplets of its blood from his cheek, he glanced over to find Magnus walking beside him while leaving a pat on his shoulder.
"Nice assist, Finn," Magnus complimented.
"No problem," the assassin said before pointing up at the rocky wall. "Though, I'd be careful about that."
There was a perfect hole left in the cave, exuding steam from the aftermath of the cannon's expelled beam.
"Such things are unavoidable," Magnus simply said.
"If this place comes crashing down, my sword is going to be unavoidable up your arse, mate," Jasper responded to the cannoneer.
