WESSEX out of the night that covers me Into the crevasse they go, one by two by one by one. She goes slowly over the slick, damp stones, listening to water trickling in the distance and the sounds of those supposedly trapped within. In the back of her mind, she wonders if it could be some kind of trap…  but she slogs on, keeping watch for danger. Except she misses it, or it slips in behind her - either way, she doesn’t notice the thing on the ground until there’s a slithering sound and Phoebe yells out Remi! She lunges towards the man and his would-be captor, able to at least aim herself in the right direction. She could attack it, but there’s no telling what the tentacle is attached to, and this isn’t an advantageous position for them to be in. So Wessex tries to grab for Remi instead - or the tentacle, whatever she can hang on to. The good thing is that if necessary, she can unsheath her talons and try to quickly strike again with violence - but hopefully her speed will be enough. -------------- Wessex lunges towards Remi and the tentacle and tries to hold him back. black as the pit from pole to pole i thank whatever gods may be for my unconquerable soul
