Familiar with several Ancients, Hadama did not seem particularly surprised or bothered by the young woman's predatory reactions. The Tidebreaker took them in stride, offering an answer that was very quickly unnecessary as one of the Tangleweeds, perhaps drawn by the sounds of their voices, wove its way through the hedges to attack.
Aithne's dagger sliced a twitching tendril from the greater mass of corrupted vegetation while Hadama, intimately familiar with what it felt like to be grasped by one of those thorny tentacle-vines, stepped up to stand at her shoulder with a grim determination on his stoic face. While she parried the tendrils that came too close, he reached for his power to deal with the main mass of hungry carnivorous plantimal. A Gravity Spike slammed down directly into the center of it, crushing the core of the creature in a brutal snapping of branches and flattening of vines. The spray of debris nearly concealed the second Void Tangleweed that had been following tightly in the shadow of the first as it launched itself through the remains of its compatriot, shadow-vines stretching out and wide to try and grapple demigod and Ancient alike.
