"Well, probably should just see. Maybe this has something to do with a monster?" Alicia said.

"Maybe," said Luisa.  "...there's something that I kind of smell here?  It's nasty."

"It would be good practice," said Rosa.  "I'm game if you are."

"...all right?" Luisa added, nervously.

"All right," said Luisa, and her bow appeared.  "I'd normally keep my distance, anyway."

The shape inside made a weirdly piercing cry, and then lashed out with tentacles that shot out from it!

Attack 25, Damage 6... but it's Multiattack.  And a Str 6 Grab!

"I've got you!" said Rosa, and in a blur of motion, she cut Alicia free of the tentacles.  Alicia was now actually being held in one of Rosa's arms, while she slashed at the tentacles with the other; Luisa supported them by firing arrows into the strange creature.  It was hurt, but had not fallen.

You can Move or Act while Dazed, so go!

The thing screeched!  Weird, tarry blood spattered, and it began to withdraw...

Combined with the attacks of the others, the creature fell... and melted away into tarry ooze.

"...We never saw it outside of cover," said Luisa.  "I wonder what it was?"

"Are you all right, Alicia?" Rosa asked.  She looked worried.

"...that thing was dangerous," said Rosa.  "I don't like that we couldn't even tell what it was."

"I wonder if they know?" Rosa speculated as they headed back.

But where would they go?
