Dune Maw Ambush
Kaiden and his Valkyries snapped their heads toward the source of the cries and swiftly rushed to the scene.

A massive, worm-like creature had emerged from beneath the dunes. Currently, it was busy feasting on its prey. The woman—Rebecca, if her teammates' cries were any indication—lay in the sand, with her entire lower body gone, devoured. She was rapidly bleeding out onto the golden grains beneath her. Her breaths were shallow, her eyes wide with terror as if she struggled to accept that what had just happened to her was reality and not a horrible nightmare.
Her teammates were doing their best to save her; they struck at the monster's hide repeatedly, but their attacks barely left a scratch. The creature's exterior was resisting everything they threw at it.
