He approached the place where he felt that the research lab was, and he pressed his hand against the wall.
"...this... it's really here... the one that must be controlling monsters..."
He was still thinking what to do when he suddenly felt a presence that felt like a knife against his throat.
Something is coming.
A very dangerous monster.
He pressed himself tightly against the wall.
Before long, he began to hear the sound of heavy footsteps and the loud crank of traps setting off, but still, the footsteps continued.
And then the monster came into view. It was wolf-like and walked with two legs, but something about it was odd. The monster's head was a ripple of different heads, as if there were numerous heads trying to come out of the main one.
Severin stopped breathing entirely, and for all intent and purpose, he was part of the stones. If he didn't make any movement, then the monster would just pass him by.
