>How far can we see there ?
>"Well i don't think i taste good, and i have my thorns too."

[Hello Purvis]

>How far can we see there ?
>"Well i don't think i taste good, and i have my thorns too."

>The foliage soon becomes a quick tangle that would be easily to lose her in, but it would take her a few moments to get in that far.
>She doesn't bother to answer your taunt, not breaking her run.

[Kilgamayan]

> Can we see where this battle originated from here? Or are we too lost?

[Hello Purvis]

> Can we see where this battle originated from here? Or are we too lost?

>You can, though a couple trees are in the way. You aren't lost just yet.

>_

[Kilgamayan]

> Have we lost a visual on the beast yet?

[Hello Purvis]

> Have we lost a visual on the beast yet?

>No.

>_

[Kilgamayan]

> Call out to the beast.
> "Leave the fairies alone, then! We should both hope I do not have to come here a second time!"

[Hello Purvis]

> Call out to the beast.
> "Leave the fairies alone, then! We should both hope I do not have to come here a second time!"

>She doesn't reply, making her way deeper into the trees, and...seeming to a bit toward you, rather than moving in a more or less straight line. She's definitely a bit more obscured now.

[Monarda]

>How close are we to the nearest thick vegetation point ?

[Kilgamayan]

> Is she just moving toward us laterally, or is she actually coming back?

[Hello Purvis]

> Is she just moving toward us laterally, or is she actually coming back?

>The former.

[Monarda]

>How close are we to the nearest thick vegetation point ?

[Hello Purvis]

>How close are we to the nearest thick vegetation point ?

>Reasonably close, the thicker forest is more or less just to your side.

>_

[Monarda]

>Try to keep an eye on the brute while making a distance between the thick spots, so that she can't perform an surprise attack.

[Hello Purvis]

>Try to keep an eye on the brute while making a distance between the thick spots, so that she can't perform an surprise attack.

>How much distance do you want to put between yourself and the thicker forest?

Don't wanna Beat just yet. The more she moves the further away from the initial confrontation site she gets.

> If we stopped time, could we safely stick a knife in the ground, with its handle visible, without causing anything serious irreparable damage?

[Hello Purvis]

> If we stopped time, could we safely stick a knife in the ground, with its handle visible, without causing anything serious irreparable damage?

>Presuming the ground isn't too hard. When time is stopped, inertia is a problem. But here, you don't think it will be enough to stop you.

[Suwako Moriya]

> Step out of time.
> Stab a knife into the ground with enough of the handle still sticking out of the ground to be well-visible.

[Hello Purvis]

> Step out of time.
> Stab a knife into the ground with enough of the handle still sticking out of the ground to be well-visible.

>Time has stopped! You plant a knife into the ground with a little resistance from the dirt.

[Suwako Moriya]

> Make haste and aerially chase after the beast.

[Hello Purvis]

> Make haste and aerially chase after the beast.

>You take to the air, following after the brute. Caught in the frozen time, she is currently in mid-run, leaping over a bush. You may be able to close in on her before you must let time flow again, or perhaps it is best to keep some distance. The trees here are fairly dense, making it difficult to fly or get a clear shot with impunity.

[Suwako Moriya]

> How far away from her are we currently?

[Hello Purvis]

> How far away from her are we currently?

>You are about fifteen yards away.

>_

[Suwako Moriya]

> Is she facing toward us, away from us, or to the side?

[Hello Purvis]

> Is she facing toward us, away from us, or to the side?

>To the side.

>_

[Suwako Moriya]

> Close in, monitoring how much longer we feel we can keep time stopped.

[Hello Purvis]

> Close in, monitoring how much longer we feel we can keep time stopped.

>You close in, ducking around this tree and that.  You think you'll have just enough time to reach her.

>_

[Suwako Moriya]

> When we're about three yards away, stop moving and fire off another horizontal line of arrowheads at the beast, lined up vertically with the beast at about heart level.
> Once we've fired off our arrowheads, step back into time.

[Hello Purvis]

> When we're about three yards away, stop moving and fire off another horizontal line of arrowheads at the beast, lined up vertically with the beast at about heart level.
> Once we've fired off our arrowheads, step back into time.

>You close most of the gap and create a row of arrowheads. Then time moves one again. The Brute resumes her movement, and your attack flies at her! She looks over as she lands from her leap, stumbling a little and losing some momentum, as the arrowheads pass just behind her back.

[Suwako Moriya]

> Keep moving toward her until she clearly regains her balance.
