There are more bestial grunts, growls, and shrieks along with sounds of human exertion. Suddenly over the din Opheia lets out a yell that turns into a scream and then sudden silence. The fight isn’t over though, as Impa can still hear Naza as he battles his attackers blindly.
Thankfully left undisturbed, Impa finishes sawing through the thatch and punches out the hole she had cut. Scrambling through the hole, Impa emerges into the evening light. Turning around she peers back down into the hole. The light provided by the setting sun only dimly illuminates the house’s interior, but it still allows Impa to see the mass of shifting black shapes. A few of the creatures look up, seemingly unbothered by the dim light and stare at Impa as she looks down on them. Looking further in, she can make out Naza, backed into a corner and desperately swinging his sword at the beasts’ grasping hands. Opheia is nowhere to be seen.
While the distance between Naza and the escape hole isn’t too great, the room is positively packed with the creatures. A second hole could be cut closer to Naza, but he would have to hold his ground for a bit while the second hole is made.
>Call for Naza to try and reach you, he’s got to get out now or never.>Tell Naza to hold on while you cut the second hole.>[Write-In]
