Chapter 10 by Master Haug Master Haug

Does he find his mark?

One of them at least, all before lunch

The solitary Snow Mountain Wolf patrolled the edge of the ice patch, its mood eerie and alert. It could sense something was nearby, but it could not see it, all she could see was the inhospitable green woods bellow, and the omni white intercut with grey rock above, distant horizons none of its interest. She decided it was better to retreat up the mountain, away from the woods bellow that were the territory of that giant snake, she did not want to be caught by it once it woke up from hibernation.

Just as it decided to start making its way back up, something materialized from thin air just above it, hitting her in the head with a burst of dark divine energy, and it recoiled in pain as its vision went dark. It barked in pain, running for its life as panic and confusion completely over took it, having no idea where it was going until it fell down a small cliff, breaking its legs in the process. It was just there, whimpering in pain when an earth lance at blank point range delivered its coup the grace, delivering it from suffering.

Damaskinos landed above his prey, body destroyed from the impact when it dove down against the wolf. Its right arm was destroyed up to the shoulder, but he remained very satisfied with the Smite arming speed compared to his arcane spells. It made sense it was supposed to be used in melee, but it pleased him nonetheless. The only problem is that his current body was utterly unable to withstand the backlash from diving head first to add the necessary extra damage, but that was what regenerate was for. God he really was a creature designed by Carnachias now wasn't he? Melanoche should be watching after the Dark Smite so he hurried up using fire infusion to cut the belly of the wolf and extracting the clear transparent core from within. A quick communion later and it was time to dig in, no sharing this time since there was little risk someone would find the body in this icy ravine, and he could safely bury the leftovers under the snow.

Belly full, and arm regenerated, he made invisible flight up, looking down on the valley where the next prey would be.

What is the next target?
