Seren
The moment the branch connected with the tangled debris of the creature, the tangleweed came to life. Branch-like limbs flared out from the globe and snatched blindly at Maeve, with sharp finger-like protrusions that attempted to seize hold of anything nearby. One of them caught hold of the improvised weapon and yanked hard, while others snatched at the woman's arms.
A roar from above announced the arrival of Umbra. Like an arrow loosed he came diving down from high up, with fire licking the open jaws. A searing hot jet of flame shot out and bathed the tangleweed from behind - if the creature even had a backside - until he had to bank sharply to avoid being caught by the grasping limbs.
Then Seren was there, with a star-wolf at her side. Armed with a borrowed Dragoon sword, she hurried up to Maeve while the summoned creature leaped at the semi-sentient weed with bared teeth.
"Go on, help the trapped creature!" she shouted, adrenaline and fear turning her voice sharper than usual. "We'll hold this thing off."
