Whitewater — [AW] Just a refreshing swim? [TRESPASS]

In the end, neither Gabriel's nor Quinnat's questions were answered. Urna took a stance to flank them and had her own thoughts about taking captives. He wasn't sure that it was the best move or not, but the two Duskorna members didn't wait to find out. A waterfall would cascade in he and Quinnat's direction. Too bulky to dash out of the way, Gabriel instead uses his already parted legs and lowered head, and twists to the side, attempting to tank the wave and hope it doesn't sweep him off his feet. He would grunt at the force of the wave, squinted eyes watching Quinnat for signs on whether they were going to go through with Urna's plan. Regardless, he didn't like the idea of perpetuating any weak-willed Verdantis stereotypes either, and opted for the path of most resistance on the Duskornians' part. Whether or not they were actually going to take any captives, punishment would be dolled out. The hulking brute would charge after them, maw parted showing the full extent of his saber teeth as he kept his breath even. As he runs, he would attempt to discharge the steel bone spikes along his neck - the projectiles would make a wide arch upwards and outwards, hoping to impale themselves somewhere in the wild dog's legs. With the abundance of healing magic in this world, there is little doubt any harm would be permanent. But the message should he be successful would be clear: he wanted it to be a reminder, a simple start to the kind of pain Verdantis could inflict.
