Into the Depths: Investigating the Shimmering Shore Tunnels (Group 4)

The worm's rage only grew with each freshly opened wound, further stoking the fires of its burning wrath. Pain seared through its fleshy petals as the wolves assaulted it, puncturing further into its flesh. It thrashes in response, attempting to coil its body inward protectively, unleashing an agonized cry.

It grows still, at least for a moment, before convulsing outward sharply. The movement sends its attackers sprawling, as it hits Corbie square beneath her jaw with a sickening pop. Her jaw is temporarily dislocated, and is sure to be sore for quite some time. The pain sears through her face, immobilizing her temporarily as she's send spinning toward the cave's floor.

Fluid continues to seep from the worm's wounds, at even greater volumes from the newest lesions. It pools around the paws of its attackers, spraying up in a cascade as the worm reels backwards, thrashing its bulk against the cave wall the way it'd come, successfully lured backwards by Wake.
