Chapter 329: Aro
329 – Aro
When I arrive, I see Aro at the centre of a clamour of Lithovars. The flesh of her face, belly, and arms are shaved away, and she cowers on the ground, clearly on the verge of death. Her autoregeneration is restoring her missing flesh, but possibly because she’s low on MP, progress is slow.
The ground around her is pitted and trees are toppled, clearly the result of a fierce battle. Scattered aroudn are corpses of what looks like [Starved Hunters] members as well as pieces of meat from the exploding rats, the trell rattons.
Aro’s shoulder is pierced by a Lithovar’s spear. It has been thrust all the way through into the ground, fixing her in place.
“What are you doing!? I told you to stop!”
“Why would I stop!? No matter how you look at it, it’s a monster! See! It caught Gran’s leg and he still can’t move! That was clearly its doing!”
“Have you gone insane too!?”
The Lithovar who stabbed Aro is arguing with another. Both are close to reaching for their weapons.
“Quickly, tear it apart! Before it summons a dreadful calamity!”
