She approaches the front door

Annette decided she had to find out what was going on as soon as possible. What if the screaming was an indication of injured village people in need of her healing?

She quickly began running to the door, racing around her modest furnishings as best she could. Before she could get there however...

**BANG**

Something heavy slammed against the door with almost enough **** to break off one of the hinges.

**BANG ** ... ** BANG**

Two more strikes hit the door as it started to splinter.

Seconds passed between each strike, just long enough for Annette to make out a hoarse groaning noise coming from the unexpected visitor.
