The Knight was quickly upon the monster with his blade poised for the strike. HIs feet having carried him across the field swiftly the Knight had no problem slamming his weapon into the chest of the creature with a sickening sound that was like cutting through water. Yet as he pulled upon the weapon with the strength of a dwarfen hero Lucian only had enough to pull the scythe back to him.
Memories came quickly. The Flesh of a Vampire. How stiff it was against all experience that the Knight had before. It was a remembrance of a time where he was so much weaker than he was now yet it was happening again.
He acted fast, and had to, for one of the many limbs of the Abomination came rolling towards him like a man trying to swat out a fly. The fire within his belly the Knight slammed his shoulder into the halfhearted attempt at his life, a sickening slap shaking the core of his now Skaven-dyed black armor.
With another push of his force Lucian swept his scythe across the chest of the monster. He did not attempt to stab but instead create a gouge that would run across the chest of the monster’s body from end to end like a bizarre surgery. The strength within him answering, Lucian was able to dig a gash that was four inches into the hide of the monster which ran across one pit of the monster’s arm to the other.
Lucian could see it, white flesh like the fat of a slaughtered animal exposed to the air before the black blood of the thrice damned Skaven leaked through it. It all began to make sense to Lucian, for he could not imagine that creatures who could birth a monster as beyond the realm of reality as this one could bleed anything other than the darkest black of hell.
The creature gave a cry that was not like a roar. A roar would shake the ground underneath your feet and shake the core of your being just as it shook the creature’s voice to make it. This was like a cannon of noise as the monster released air in a manner alien to Lucian’s ears. It slammed into his body like a punch, trying to set him off his feet as the monster simply decided to slam Lucian with its full upper body.
He dodged, for there was no trying to take that hit head on. The impact against the ground itself was enough that the earth underneath Lucian seemingly turned to water instead of the hard solid he assumed it would be, causing him to stumble just enough for the monster to reach a limb towards him and pull him off his feet.
Lucian was quick to retaliate as he slashed into not the offending limb, but one of the many heads that the monster had. A single attack had bisected five of them and caused the Abomination from hell to toss him in a spasm of pain.
