The Blirdoth roared as it broke from the ice encasing it. Its monstrous canine face showed rage; it was weird for a thaid to be that human-like, but that was what was really scary about sentient thaids.
They were intelligent. The Blirdoth's massive size and strength already made it a tough opponent, and that it had human-like traits only added to its danger.
As the creature came out, it looked at the humans with contempt. Not even Principal Van Dyke's black flames were enough to make a difference.
However, this didn't mean that the creature did not take any damage; in fact, its fur showed that it suffered a lot due to the black flames, as the ice made the fur fragile, and it quickly fell off while the beast got out of the ice.
The problem was that it became obvious there wasn't anyone among those present who could kill it once and for all.
