A few hours earlier...
Princess Helena and Inara arrived at the camp after sending Uri away.
The monster was in the midst of a fight with the only two low-level warriors that were present there. The teenagers were hiding behind the camp's protective barrier, screaming in terror. The barrier was made of large tree roots jetting out of the ground that encompassed the entire caravan.
The princesses did not attack immediately after arriving at the scene. They remained in hiding some distance away, observing the battle carefully.
Princess Inara's gaze was transfixed on the monster. It was a big ugly thing. A hunched bi-pedal monster covered in grey elephant-like hide and squirming muscles underneath it. Both its hands ended in three long nails that were there instead of fingers. Each nail was half a meter in length.
It had thick, slightly curved legs that also ended in the same sharp nails instead of toes.
