The Unraveling - Going Deeper

The ice cave echoes with the pained cries of the worm; one shard of ice, shoved forward by Epimethius, manages to stab through its ice-encrusted exterior. Its cries grow louder, rattling more and more ice from the ceiling as the wolves continue their assault.

It thrashes hard against Dracun's attacks, against Víðarr's teeth, against Medusa's cougar's attacks, against the ice thrown by Ezekiel, by Enyo, and against Beat thrusting a spike of ice directly into its back. It plunges in deep, though the worm pauses before its body undulates vertically, abruptly jerking backwards.

The ice shard splinters, then is driven back too quickly for Beat to react, plunging straight through his chest. Blood gushes from his chest as he crumples to the ground, body twitching only for a moment before he grows still and lifeless.

The worm turns its attention to Damira, and the icicle sent flying toward it. Trying to slap away the ice, it fails, sending it flunging through its flesh in an exposed section. As it lunges forward the icy tips of its petals slash against the side of Damira's neck, lacerating the skin deep enough to leave a scar.

Rearing back, the worm's attacks become more erratic. Ooze that has begun to spring from the worm's injured body steams in the frigid northern air, more chunks of ice raining down from above, furthering the already chaotic scene as the number of attackers dwindle.
