"What are they talking about?"
"I don't know Amy, but it seems Heather made her move."
"Still, I don't think that they'd normally call her a beast..."
"I know that, but there's still a need to find her."
"HEY, you can't be here!"
"Um!!!"
We all realized that this was too high a level for only 4 of us.
"Listen, it's too dangerous out here for the low levels. Everyone below 400 should be inside."
He didn't realize that we were enemies. We played along.
"What's going on exactly?"
"I don't actually know, but what I do know is that the killer commander was scared by it."
"Is that bad?"
"Is that bad... of course it is!"
The level 400+ led us through a road then we all froze as we saw something.
Someone, no something was hunched over.
We heard the sound of bone crunching and meat being bitten into.
The guy looked disgusted.
"Hey peasant. It's not safe. Especially for rats like you that aren't in the system."
He seemed to regard the strange thing as lower as there was no sign of it being in the system.
"Oooh?! More food approaches?"
"What?"
It leapt at him and ripped him to shreds before chewing on his corpse. The voice was too distorted for us to make out.
It stood up and looked around, sniffing.
It was huge, almost a full foot taller than me. Birdlike legs make it harpyish, but its draconic horns were odd. With tattered wings and a melted face we all knew.
We found the person we intended to save, and we were too scared of her to even move.
"I thought there were more... Oh well, I can find them later."
She leapt away, Going from tree to tree.
We all realized we were holding our breath.
"Okay, what the **** was that?"
Thalia's voice made us jump.
"I think that was Heather..."
"I know that was Heather, Dallel, but what was THAT??!"
"I don't know."
"Can you talk with Luma and ask her?"
"No, she doesn't have access to capitals."
"Crap, should we head back?"
"Not without her."
"..."
Ausar sighed deeply.
"We're following her, aren't we?"
