Return To The Land Of The Living

[Sia and Mary's POV]

The two women were looking at the hole they had to climb up to help the girls, but Mary said it wasn't time because the Burrow Beetles had to dig some more to get them to the surface. She ordered the large monsters to start digging as a rumble came from one of the tunnels.

Shila appeared behind them, her voice laced with concern, ''The Swarm is coming from two of the tunnels. The Cave Spider Scouts were killed by their monsters.''

Mary nodded, but Sia looked nervous as the grey-haired woman smiled and said, ''You stay here and cover the other cave with the Warrior Spoders.''

The dragonkin woman nodded with a determined but strained expression as the carriage-sized arachnids assembled behind her. Mary chuckled at the sight before strolling into the adjacent tunnel, whistling a tune.
