A group of five faced off against a roaring wolf spirit beast with three spiraling tails. The tails moved like shadows, throwing faints and jabs that they were on high alert against, only to swipe down with its claws, catching one of the five off guard and knocking them back several paces.

You could never see the real strike coming because it felt like just as much as a feint as all the others.
