Muddy River
A wide ravine where a shallow, gentle river flows. Years of drought and silt deposits have built this area into a fertile delta. The river remains low and dry most of the year, staining its waters brown and creating muddy shores.

He'd never seen a bug so large before. He wasn't sure why it was so aggressive, attacking them unprovoked, but it didn't matter in that moment. He keeps one eye on the beetle and one eye on Dos, glad his shield was able to protect her from the initial blow. He'd watch as the shield would take the blow, shattering out of existence. They were on their own now, but alone together.

Just then, Dos says, 'Early sorry if I shock ya too!' Wait, what? A jolt of electricity would fire out from Dos to the beetle, and the wolf can hear its garbled, bug-like screech of pain. Thank the gods; Gabriel seems to have avoided the Aftershock.

It seems disoriented from the attack, but the beetle, still enraged and not quite satisfied yet, would surprisingly push on.  It would try to charge head first at Gabriel again. He wouldn't underestimate its strength and try to meet it head on, so he attempts to move around it and go behind it, then try to grab one of its legs and shake violently. Hopefully he can inflict enough pain on it to get it to back off.
