A Close Call

"We have to go NOW," Dhaka urged, his voice trembling and his face pale as he stored the communication token.
"What... what happened?" Alida, the succubus-like snake lady and archer of their group, asked anxiously.
"The Savage is coming. Karsha said we should move to the next location," Dhaka explained, hastily storing the bodies of the monsters he had slain. Despite their hasty departure, he ensured that no monster bodies, cores, or orbs were left behind.
"We have to go after him," Killian, the shieldbearer, said, his face equally pale. Though they were Tier 7 snakes, the gap between them and a Tier 7 Terror was like comparing a pond to an ocean.
Confronting the Overlord was beyond their capabilities, so fleeing was the only logical choice. However, Killian, along with the others, was determined to save Karsha, the Tier 5 human in their group.
