"Shit!" Lucian said as he ran intothe cavern wall, his right hand covered in silver flames, "The fuck is that thing?!"
He had been running through the tunnels, trying to escape the talking cobra, shooting firebolts at it as he did so but the serpent was able to swiftly dodge them while hissing fiercely and cursing him out.
He kept running, trying to home in on his drakelings to regroup. As he did so, the massive black cobra kept chasing, slithering behind him.
"Where are you going?!" The cobra shouted, "Come back here, Cursed One!!"
Lucian flicked his hand back at it, firing off a silver firebolt, but the cobra dodged it by slithering out of the way and onto the wall with terrifying agility.
"Shit." Lucian cursed as he ran, "Whatever that thing is, it's crazy. It must be some powerful familiar. I can't fight it in such an enclosed space, where it could bite me again."
