“Graaaah!”0

A deep, guttural roar echoed through the swamp, reverberating through the murky waters and chilling me to the bones. The sound was so fierce that I mistook it for a tiger’s roar for a split second. 0

Unfortunately, the source of the ominous sound was far more dangerous than a tiger; fifteen hulking, crocodile-like beasts were emerging from the depths of the swamp. Despite their terrifying appearance, my initial reaction wasn’t fear, but curiosity.0

How on earth are they balancing those massive heads while standing on two legs?2

Of course, that question was irrelevant right now. Shifting my focus back to the creatures, I quickly noted their dangerous aspects. Although they weren’t wielding weapons, their claws’ sheer length and sharpness would more than serve as replacements.0

Claws, teeth, and tails. I will need to keep my eyes on all of those.0

Their massive forms didn’t seem built for speed, though I didn’t anticipate this being a particularly difficult battle, regardless. 0

As I stood there, assessing the situation, the beasts began to move and form a slow, deliberate circle around me. Finally, a notification popped up before my eyes.0
