While Sionn moved as quickly as she dared through the backstreets, there were additional screams throughout the town. It was as if they were under siege; but not from some fleet from across the sea or an army by land. Something appeared out of nowhere, killed and then vanished again. Again and again.<br/><br/>Nearing the location of the nearest scream, Sionn could see the feet of some person as something dragged him or her through an opening into the sewage pipes beneath the street. Then gone.<br/><br/>Just then, around the corner behind her. It was about the size of a human, with long thin legs with massive claws, no arms and a snout-like face that dripped with acid. It looked at Sionn then headed off in another direction.
