He was close, biding his time and waiting for the right moment to strike. Good, he was smarter than the last ones they sent. Taking a bite of his lamb he chewed it thoughtfully, he may actually have a bit of a fight ahead of him.

Crevis barely looked up from his dinner as she burst through the door, his first thought being more concerned with having to repair it than for the person sent to kill him.

The creature charged at her, swiping at the woman with its long, black claws.
