Your shaft sinks deeply into the creature’s ghastly hide, yet it does not prevent the loathsome worm from spitting its caustic saliva at you once more.

The corrosive saliva splashes your left arm and, within seconds, this vile fluid eats through the cloth of your tunic and sears your flesh: lose 3 ENDURANCE points.

Aided by your Magnakai Disciplines of Nexus and Curing, you hold back the pain and recover in time to launch another attack upon this burrowing horror.
