Jenny danced in and out of the monsters reach, slashing at its arm with her sword when in range, but never seeming to do much damage to it. Indeed, the wounds seemed to make it thrash at her harder. She frowned, slashing at its hand as it came dangerously close to hitting her, then deciding to try a more direct attack.<br/><br/>She bounced up and onto its back, sword held downwards. "Let's try this!" she exclaimed, stabbing it as hard as she could, slipping the xiphos in between armoured ribs and driving it hard into the beasts internal organs. Before she could withdraw and try again, the huge ape leaped up and slammed his back into the roof of the mine, crushing Jenny against the rocks with a sickening set of crunches. The woman gasped and fell to the ground, slumped up into a heap. The golden hilt of her sword still sticking out of the beasts back.
