Barghest felt her pulse quicken, the thrill of the fight simmering beneath her skin as she watched the beast descend, its movements almost hypnotic in their brutality. Amid the chaos, her gaze locked onto Gem, her sister, just as the creature’s gnashing maw tore through her ear. The sight spurred a fierce anger within her, flaring hotter than the cold biting into her bones. Watching the blood of her sister stain the white-blue glow of the ice. Barghest's jaw clenched, eyes narrowing as she rushed to Gem’s side.
"Stay on your feet, Gem," she muttered under her breath, a promise and a command wrapped into one. She could feel the worm’s attention shifting, its maw opening wide for another onslaught, the cavern itself seeming to tremble at the act. The worm might have hungered, but Barghest would make sure it paid the price for every ounce of blood it dared spill. Her muzzle scrunches as she watched more wolves move in, becoming distractions and even boosting each other up— but they give her an opening.
With a snarl, she launched herself forward, claws digging into the slick ice as she charged. She aimed for the beast’s exposed flank, a glint of satisfaction in her eyes as she closed in, ready to tear into it. The worm had made its move, and now it was her turn. She’d make this beast regret every strike. Jaws splayed wide, she clamped down and sought to rend a gaping wound into it’s disgusting hide.
