The Hunters

The group continues down the tunnel and eventually arrive at the mouth of the tunnel. Past it there's a large open area and the walls of the area are completely carved out to create places for various objects, full suits of armor, various accessories and weapons. It's almost like a museum or collection. Each object independently displayed. The group start to enter, looking around for any sign of threats.

There's no sound except the very gentle noise of falling sand when Lri suddenly cries out, "look out!" and she suddenly tackles Lemiel, managing to knock her out of the way just as a scorpion tail stabs out from the wall, just at the opening of the tunnel. The sand falls away as a Scorpion, completely hidden in the wall emerges. Physically she seems the same as any other Scorpion, but she carries herself with a self-assured demeanor and on top of that, she's wielding a spear and wearing light leather armor. A grin plays on her lips, "Good job, fishgirl," she congratulates Lri as she spins the spear in her hands threateningly. She's now blocking the exit tunnel.

"Who are you?" Yulia asks as Lri pulls Lemiel away from the Scorpioness and to the safety of the group.

"Rebecca... But you can call me Beck," the Scorpioness responds and then stabs the pole of the spear into the ground and leans against it, "you set the Wasps free... On the one hand I should thank you. Before the Wasps were subjugated we Scorpions lived a harsh life. Hiding, scrounging for food and resources while doing our best to hide from the predators. During those days, some of us, myself included, learned to be hunters. We swore we'd be predators not prey. We learned to fight, learned to ambush, to stalk. We became deadly. Even the Wasps feared us, but the majority of our kind remained weak, fearful. We tried to convince them to become like us, but then that slut Chrissie came up with the idea to subjugate the Wasps using the Tarantulas and once that worked. We Hunters became unnecessary, weirdos, shunned by the rest of the Scorpion society. Now that the Wasps are free again... It's our time to shine once more," she explains.

"You're welcome," Yulia responds cheekily and Beck chuckles.

"Of course I do still need to punish you for what you did to my species, even if the ones suffering now, deserve it. Ready to become an egg filled whore?" she asks, yanking the spear back out of the ground and leveling it at the group, threateningly.

The group ready their own weapons as well as the two groups stare each other down. The only noise, the quiet sound of falling sand.
