Big problems

It took Alaric weeks to get to these lands. Once he was inside the caverns, he was surprised by the natural beauty of the stones and their glow. He noticed the mushrooms immediately, but dared not to sniff or taste them. Something in his gut told him not to. He was simply exploring when a new scent entered his wet nostrils, making his back hackles rise in alertness. It was the smell of a bear. Maybe it made the caverns it's home for the upcoming winter? He wasn't sure but it smelled pissed. Before he even could turn around, he heard it's echoing growls within the caverns and saw it's shadow.

"Well then, time to dance." He snarled lowly and took charge at the bear. Successfully dodging a swipe that was mere inches from hitting his head, Alaric managed to secure the paw within his maw. He shook his head violently, hoping to damage it and immobilize the bear. He wasn't sure if help was coming, so he was trying to play as dirty as he could.
