Re: Chapter 6: The Second Temple
Your final efforts do quite a bit of good, especially since the beast is too distracted to fully dodge you. It writhes, shaking the ground as it slams into it, trying to dislodge the dragon, Stefan manages to claw his way out of the thing's mouth, falling in an acid covered heap that sizzles from his burning flesh. The creature itself spews an inordinate amount of blood, likely from being clawed up on the inside, and then finally falls, twitching in its death throes.
Stefan shifts back into human form, though he lies there limply and so burned by acid you can barely recognize him. Halek, sobbing, runs toward him looking more upset than you've ever seen him and Raina watches with complete horror, tearing up herself. Should you examine him you see his lifeless eyes are open and there is a slight, satisfied smirk on what's left of his face.
