DwarminYou bellow angrily and ram your lance into the wurm's side just as it overtakes Kaltukk. The poor orc probably never even saw it coming, and even as you begin to realise this the wurm lurches backwards, pulling its head free of the wall where he collided with it. You hang on to the embedded lance as the wurm turns to the right, lifting you just off of the ground, and begins sliding away in the direction of Claire. You can see a pillar approaching and, given how tight the squeeze already is, you're positive that if you stay here you'll be crushed or swept off of your new perch. One split-second decision later you find yourself swinging upwards, balancing precariously atop the handhold turned foothold, and leaping atop the writhing body of the wurm just as the pillar snaps the handle of the lance protruding from the wurm to splinters. You struggle to maintain your footing on the uncertain ground as the wurm wriggles its way after Claire.
scapheapThe wurm slams into Kaltukk, gobbling him up in a single gulp before crunching into the wall beyond him due to the sheer amount of uncontrolled speed behind it. The wurm pulls itself out of the wall, leaving a massive crater where its head stuck into it, then it writhes its way around to look at you. You yelp and start sprinting in the opposite direction. You can hear it already starting to gain on you, and Tali is nowhere in sight. She probably got eaten too.
You can see the elf jumping and waving at you in the distance, and you decide to head toward him. You try not to cry and do a pretty good job.
Ross VernalYou head back toward the sounds of screaming and sobbing. You hear a thunderous
boom and you can feel the ground shake beneath your feet. Dust rains down from the nearby pillars and not a few rocks fall from the ceiling around you. You shield your head as stones and at least one brick bounce off of your arms, and in the meantime keep on jogging towards the sounds of battle. You're not really cut out for this whole 'hero' schtick.
CheesecakeYou're getting ready to punch the hell out of that wurm when it eats you whole, which kinda puts a damper on the whole 'punch the wurm' plan you had going.
ZakoEverything shakes as you watch the wurm plow through Kaltukk and straight into the wall behind him, probably killing him instantly. You frown as the wurm pulls his head out of the wall, shaking off the effects of the collision and turning towards you. You're a bit frightened at first, but then you see that its after Claire, which doesn't really make you feel much better. Thats when you see the dwarf trying her best to balance atop the wurm. You glance back at the fallen pillar. Yes, it could work. You shout and wave your arms at Claire, trying to get her attention. She sprints towards you as fast as she can, and the wurm is right behind her the whole way.
