Things that go bump in the night

She sighed with relief as her paws connected with stone, more than happy to accept the hard impact of her leap to the other side in favor of falling to what was sure to be her death. She stepped away from the edge a bit just for her own piece of mind and was about to turn and question her guide about what came next since she didn't see any obvious goal ahead of her now, but before she could a low, bone rattling roar stopped her, making her tense as she spun around to face the sound. Of all the strange things she had witnessed today, the absolutely massive, glowing worm erupting from the lava below had to be the most ridiculous and unbelievable. "You're kidding, right? I've got to be dreaming..." she muttered in disbelief, watching as splatters of lava dotted the ground in front of her. Even though there were no words, it was as if she just knew this thing's name somehow. Joseph. What a name for a worm.

She glanced past the worm and saw her soot-coated guide growling at this thing. So they were in for a fight, huh? But how did one fight a massive, lava swimming, glowing worm that couldn't possibly be real? She immediately dropped into a fighting stance, readying herself as she watched how it moved like she would any of her opponents. Hopping back a bit to put a little more distance between herself and the worm while still being mindful of the far edge of this platform, she tried to piece together how this thing would attack and where an opening might be. Not only was this the strangest fight she had ever encountered, but she also had to keep in mind the fact that it was swimming in lava It was more than worth figuring out some intel before she dove into this head first.
