S10 - Magnam Subsinctus

by Alan Hayburne

The rain's comin' down, and there's a flash over by the guard house - we gotta get there, quick! There's another man over there, but he's got like...ears, not like, regular ears, but like, fox-type ears, and his birdman companion - he looks like he's ready for a fight.
 
Fox-man goes through a magic door o' some kind, and bird-man gets ready for the real thin -- HOLY MOLY HE'S A BEAR.
 
It's a bit rough - I'm scratched up, and his blood's like fire - burns something fierce. We're pokin' holes in him slow but sure, but he's grinnin' like a fool - like 'e's enjoyin' gettin' hurt - AGH, HE'S A BITER! Slippery little fangworm, this guy.
 
NOW HE'S A GIANT LIZARD?! -- Ey, you leave Minky alone!
 
IT
 
IS
 
DINO RODEO TIME.
 
We...we did it -Damn tough bastard, this one, but he's down - I need a breather.
 
Cammelia patched me up, I think I'm about ready to go, see if we can help some of these - ANOTHER SPEAR?! DANG IT. I swear I'm losin' one of these every other day. At least the guardhouse is right there.
 
We gotta go get help for those people by the burnin' part o' town.
 
The people are gone - ran out o' town, but things are quiet now. The whole place ain't burnin' at least.
