Pain on a platter of Gold

It seemed to have forgotten a certain young man that acted even harsher than the young lady. They say the bane of victory was inattention. A lot could happen in a split second. A second of inattention in a battle could not only leave you without your head but even deprive you of your very soul.

A second of unattending to Dylan caused this creature to sustain an immense damage. A few inches away from swallowing Raaya whole like it envisioned, a thin golden rope appeared out of no where and strapped its mouth tightly shut, the same time pulling it downwards by a few meters. How coincidental was it that at that moment when this creature was pulled downwards, Raaya's falling figure was shifted from falling into it's mouth but now fell directly unto its eyes.

Crack.
