Description
Exp to Teagan!

--

There is a sound like chains striking the floor. It echoes again and again, rhythmically, approaching like footsteps. From the shadows of a building, the ragged silhouette of a huge, inky black dog emerges. The only parts of it visible against the darkness are its long white teeth and claws, and the burning coal-like brightness of its eyes. It seems calm, deliberate and calculating as it circles you. Then it lunges, with great speed and accuracy - past you, for your brother.

This is a barghest, a creature you've heard of in many stories. It is considered an omen of death because wounds inflicted by its teeth and claws are resistant to healing magic. It should not be able to cross running water but it seems this one can.

For the Playing Gods event!
Tea sustains some nasty bites and scratches in protecting her brother and is hauled, bleeding freely, to the Birchbird clinic for some good old-fashioned stitches and bandaging... Featuring also her friends and the trials they encountered as well.
