I could see our thread of blood pulsating in her body, glowing ominously. Yes, Wolfy was a woman; I could discern her gender clearly from this distance, thanks to the Night Vision skill.

In a split second, I sensed impending doom if that thread made of my blood reached its end. Quick on my feet, I materialized my short sword, ready to sever the thread, but Wolfy dropped a bombshell:
