. Though protected from real dam-
age by the leather, Flint howled with pain. He snatched up
another rock and smashed at the thin, straining append-
ages. First one, then another, were severed by his ferocious
blows. Blue ichor stained the rock ledge beneath Flint's foot.
Perian fired a second stone at the beast, hitting just at the

head out from the wall, dragging Flint's foot from the ledge.

any sort of hold with the other. Perian grabbed him by the
shoulders just as the monster reared again, and both of them
flew off the ledge and out into space. The remaining tentacle
around Flint's foot tightened, then snapped in two. Still
clutching each other, Flint and Perian bounced and skidded
down the length of the beast's segmented back, finally
crashing onto a pile of bones on the ground.
