Halek listened to the disembodied voice with little interest as he looked up at the sky. As the voice was monologuing Halek was looking in the sky for whoever was speaking, hoping they were within sight. Halek felt chills as the city was ravaged and the marching resounded throughout the area. Worried that an attack might be coming, Halek half-drew his sword and stepped towards the city. As the marching slowly quieted and the chains left Halek put his sword away and turned towards the body of the beast. Watching as Lilianna examined the body he looked for his knife by the beast. Listening as he looked he found some of her findings interesting. Such as how weak the body was without magic sustaining it. The beast must have been in constant pain throughout its existence.
Finding his knife nearby he tested the blade to make sure it was no longer leaking venom. After making sure it was safe Halek noticed some of the beast's blood was still on the blade. Bringing it up to his nose he sniffed the blade, wondering if the blood had been warped along with the rest of the beast’s body. Bringing up a vial he put a few drops of the beast's blood in there for later use and study. Feeling a stinging feeling in his palm he realized he had yet to tend to the cut on his palm. Pulling a bandage out of his satchel he quickly wrapped it around his hand, covering the wound. He would have to get that healed eventually, but it would be a waste of time now because if they were to enter combat soon he would likely have to open up the wound again.
Walking back towards the rest of the group he looked towards the city. They were unlikely to find anything inside of it, but it wouldn’t hurt to make sure by checking. Halek wondered what his master would think of this situation. Likely to be curious the old man would bury himself in scrolls to find the answer. Likely Halek would be dragged into studying with him. But that wasn’t until he returned so all he has to do now is focus on the mission. Stepping next to Ardur he kept his eyes trained on the city. “Any idea what that creature was? The Commander is going to be asking a lot of questions about this.”
