Everyone looked toward the explosion as debris with planks and wooden pillars flew in all directions, along with the body of a large man being thrown far away.

The sound of the debris, along with the flames burning some of the houses, was the only thing that could be heard, mixed with some screams of lingering terror, but all the Lannister soldiers simply fell silent, stopping their looting.

The large body hit the ground several times before finally stopping at a distance with the wreckage, eventually coming to a halt more than 15 meters from the inn, lying on the ground like a limp, lifeless body.

"What is that...?" one of them muttered, stunned.
"That's Lord Clegane..." another soldier murmured.
"Did you hear that scream?! What was that... an animal?"

Suddenly, a new growl came from inside the inn with its entrance destroyed.
"Ahhh!" a desperate scream came from within.
"Monster!!"
"Help me... Ahhhhh!!!!"

Screams began to erupt as dozens of men stared at the place, unable to see what was really happening there due to the cloud of dust caused by the debris, only able to hear the men screaming and growling sounds mixed with the noise of flesh being torn apart — as if an animal were devouring them — something so sinister that everyone watching swallowed hard.

Then, someone emerged from the wreckage, running outside, a look of terror on his face, his clothes soaked in blood.

"Run, a monster! There's a monster in there!!" he shouted, trying to flee as fast as he could before a sound came from inside the place — an object, an axe over 130 cm long, came flying out, and the man couldn't do anything.

The axe hit him in the back, passing through his chest in an explosion of blood as he only groaned, dying in the next moment.

"AHH!" one of the soldiers looked on in horror as he saw his companion fall dead, the massive weapon embedded in his back.

Everyone who witnessed the scene swallowed hard, taking steps back and grabbing their weapons. Seeing the Mountain lying on the ground after an inexplicable explosion, and now this — a seemingly large and dangerous beast throwing an axe from inside the place and killing that man like he was nothing — terrified them like never before, making them ignore even the villagers fleeing from the very place they had just been killing and raping.

Then, the axe, which had markings on its blade with ancient rune designs, began to glow. The next moment, it suddenly shot out from the man's body, which reacted as the axe left him, leaning upward before collapsing again under gravity, the axe flying back inside, passing through the dust cloud of shattered wood.

While a new wave of fear gripped the outside, the children — a 15-year-old boy and his 12-year-old sister — after almost being abused and killed by Lannister men, having seen their father die like an animal, were huddled in a corner watching in fear.

The place was filled with the bodies of those same soldiers, their limbs torn off and scattered here and there, their chests pierced by that other thing now present, which caught the flying axe returning to it.

They didn't even fully understand what had happened — while the girl was about to be abused by the Mountain, that stranger had fired an arrow and dropped the bow just as the huge man ran toward him. The explosion followed, destroying the front of the place with a thunderous sound and strange shouted words.
