Recovery

"JACK!!"

Everyone yelled as the heard the young hero crash through all kinds of undergrowth. 

Some of the last few bears also eyed Jack, intent on killing the one responsible for harming their pridelord. But they wouldn't get the chance because the adventurers used the bears' distraction to give quick lethal blows.

In less than a minute, the fight was over and all the girls hurried to Jack's side with Keela and Eliza in the lead.

Seeing that Jack would be well taken care of, Maynard and Rydel decided to charge the pridelord. But their hopes of finishing it off ended before they even began.

Charred and burned beyond recognition, the Flat-nose Bear pridelord laid on the ground, no longer breathing. It was sad for them to see it like that because now they wouldn't be able to harvest any of its materials. All the fur had been destroyed, its meat was ruined, and even the bones had become brittle.
