Hideaway Strath There Are Monsters

Zsuzsa heard the rise of Nyra’s initial call, but had taken time to arrive. The snow was much deeper and required more work to sift through. The Mackenzie couldn’t recall the last time Winter had been as heavy as this. Coupled with the fact she had been poisoned prior by a coyote in Sun Mote Copse, she was more laggard than usual. Nyra’s call was typically one of immediate attention, but Whrist’s howl now sounded. Something was very wrong.
 
The scene was a frenzied blood bath. Nyra on the back of a behemoth female bear, snow at the ground in deep red from Nyra dismembering the right hind leg. Derg was bloodied even more so, seeing as how Kynareth, Whrist, and Simmik were pursuing the bear after Derg. Then there was another male that reeled on its hind legs to give a roar, announcing his presence into the ring, but making no sudden moves. There was so much escalating so fast.

The announcement of the third bear was a fault on his part, as without hesitation (and somewhat on autopilot) Zsuzsa instantly went for the female bear Nyra was on top of, throwing herself toward the she-bear and sinking her fangs into its left shoulder. Zsuzsa’s goal was to cripple another limb so it now functioned on two legs and was easier for the Saints to get the upper paw. There was no way Zsuzsa could have rushed @Br’er on her own so in pack animal fashion, her instinct drove her to be efficient in working together bringing an already injured opponent down.
