He wanted so desperately to object, but knew that Aria’s plan to overwhelm the beast’s senses would be the only viable course of action. As his lightsaber crackled to life, he told Aria: “You’re much more nimble than I am. Go for the weak spot. I’ll make sure that it’s distracted.” The beast emitted a throaty chuckle after Yerbol finished. “Come then!” The beast uttered a thundering roar, the Knight charging ahead and throwing his saber out in front of him towards its legs. Dodging to its left, it opened its massive jaws and aimed a steady stream of blueish-white energy that sliced through the chamber they had previously been in, reducing the entire structure to rubble. Yerbol ran past the creature, saber returning to his hand as he leaped into the air and attempted to plunge his blade into the monster’s back. Instead of a successful stab, a heavy wing swatted him towards the other end of the path, the Jedi careening backwards until he thudded against the rock wall opposite where they began the battle, frozen shards of rain chattering in protest as Yerbol’s body broke through the curtain of ice. Shaking his head to clear the mental fog threatening to envelop him, he got to his feet just as the creature turned its head, ambling towards him with the appearance of a toothy grin. He thrust his left hand forward, a surge of wind pushing the beast back several feet. It snorted, flummoxed by the gesture, before it continued. Yerbol tried again, pouring more energy into the gesture. This time the creature was blown back, wings askew from the blast. “Aria, now!” The creature was recovered fully and sped towards Yerbol with a vicious tenacity. He looked up, cursing at the frozen wilderness for the limited visibility. He could only hope that Aria could hit one of the sensory glands she mentioned. With no chance of dodging, he was in a serious bind. Unless- He waited for the creature to come within a few hundred feet of him before he suddenly ran forward, slicing downward as he leaped up past the head, connecting with the monster's face. A howl of pain rang through the air. "Ok, now would be a better time! Go!"
