Thok the Bloodthirsty

Nakti - troll hunter - survival/beastmastery
We headed down de tunnel, which was lit by hidden lamps. De cavern was huge, carved out by t'ousands of hands. Or magic. Whatever had been done ta make it, de purpose o' it came clear as day de moment we rounded de corner an' came face ta face wit probably de scariest t'ing in here.A giant devilsaur.
Dere were Kor'kon warriors at de far end o' de room, tryin' ta wrangle de devilsaur back inta its cage. Around de room, d'ough, charged a yeti, bats, a mushan beast, an' pterosaurs. De poor animals looked like they'd been tortured, an' dere hides bore welts an' scars an' scratches. I gripped my bow tight, an' rested my hand on de head o' my wolf. I stroked his ears and wondered how far someone had ta fall ta hurt innocent creatures like dis.
Either way, dey were all beyond savin'. It hurt, but we put dem all down. It wasn't a painless death, but we did what we could ta minimize de damage, an' I t'ink in de end, dey felt like dey'd put up a fight worthy o' de kind o' freedom we gave dem.
As soon as we finished wit de yeti, de devilsaur finished wit de Kor'kron jailers. We watched in morbid fascination - or horror, dependin' - as he devoured dem in one big bite. I felt de terror begin in my stomach an' try ta work its way inta my mind. Fur pressed tightly against my legs, an' I knew my wolf an' other companions were scared too. We were gonna have ta fight dat devilsaur, and kill him. 'Cause if we didn't, den Garrosh gonna use him as a weapon against his enemies, an' I doubt anyone would be able ta stand 'gainst him.
I swallowed, only half listening ta Xallion go over de strategy we was gonna use. When he called ta see if everyone was ready, I added my voice in wit de rest, an' joined one o' de two groups as Greymoon moved inta his position.
"On ya, Grey." Xallion called.
I nocked an arrow, readied myself. And den my bones rattled wit de devilsaur's roar as Greymoon attacked him. We ran in, keepin' de two groups as separate as we could while stayin' wit'in de healin' rain an' in range o' de other heals. Xallion burned his bloodlust ability, addin' power ta our attacks an' heals. I fired as many arrows as I could toward de devilsaur's eyes, tryin' ta blind it. My pets ran ta his heels an' began chompin' on what dey could reach. I seemed ta be havin' a better time o' fightin' him den de spellcasters, since he kept interruptin' dere spells it seemed. Den I saw a look o' relief spews across Schio's and Kyel's faces, an' realized I too was shielded by devotion aura. One or both o' de paladins had used de ability ta give us extra time. I looked at Julip; she nodded back an' we both set out explosive traps dat made de devilsaur lift his paws slightly ta keep dem from being burned.
"Get in!" Xallion called after a few minutes o' dis, an' we shifted ta de center o' de healin' rain.
Suddenly, de devilsaur let out a terrible roar and turned his beady eyes on Xallion. I heard Schio scream and den Xallion took off like a shot, racin' toward de hallway as fast as his paws could carry him. I kept my attention focused on de devilsaur, d'ough outta de corner o' my eye, I could see de melee tryin' ta bring down a Kor'kron jailer. I t'rew an explosive trap under de jailer's feet, but I kept my eyes firmly on de devilsaur, an' watched him come back our way, dis time chasin' Nph.
"I got the key!" Yelled Greymoon.
"Open de cage!" Xallion returned, once more runnin' down de hall wit a devilsaur on his tail.
Greymoon spun 'round and opened de cage behind us, lettin' out a group o' saurok. Dey ran outta de cage and, to our surprise, dey began ta attack de devilsaur! Not dat they saurok lasted long; once de devilsaur realized it was dem attackin' him an' not us, he quickly turned an' made a meal outta all o' dem. Niarweaver grabbed de devilsaur's attention once he was done eatin', and we got inta position in de nick o' time. Den Grey taunted de devilsaur off o' Niarweaver, and soon I saw why. A flock o' bats came screamin' outta nowhere an' began attackin' poor Niar. I turned ta de bats as fast as I could an' began ta barrage den down. As soon as de last bat fell ta our onslaught, I turned back ta de devilsaur and fired as many shots as I could 'fore Xallion called for us ta gather close.
Dis time when we split, we ran toward a different cage. Dis one had jinyu in it. Like before, de melee focused on de jailer while de ranged focused on de devilsaur, tryin' ta wear him down. His hide was already a mess o' arrows and burns and bites; I couldn't believe he was still standin' let alone movin' like he was.
A shiver ran t'rough me when de jailer fell and Grey opened de new cage. Ice began ta form on my skin and I realized de jinyu was attackin' us as well. I had ta ignore de cold; it went away as soon as Nph cleansed it off me. As de devilsaur came in ta attack de jinyu, we again scrambled ta position ourselves, and as soon as Greymoon had de devilsaur's attention, we began ta attack as hard as we could. Julip gave a warnin' cry, an' I leaped outta de way as a yeti blew past us. I began ta turn toward de yeti, by Xallion stopped me.
"Ignore it." He said. "Focus on de big guy."
So I did. Blood ran in rivers down de devilsaur's hide, an' he almost seemed ta become lethargic. But only almost. Dere was still plenty o' fight left in de beast. I was almost outta arrows, which would mean I'd soon become useless ta de team. I grit my teeth and pulled back on my bowstring as hard as I could, launchin' an arrow tipped wit black poison toward de devilsaur's eye. It stung him, caused him ta roar in pain, givin' Greymoon 'nough time ta switch places wit Niarweaver.
De transition happened sooner did time, despite Nph's an' Sabaak's best efforts ta shield us wit devotion aura. We spread out again, once more wit de melee on de jailer and de ranged on de devilsaur. Dis time we had ta avoid de yeti, which was harder den it sounded. As a hunter, I had a better view o' de room den de melee, so it became my an' Julip's duty ta warm dem.
De jailer fell, and once more, Greymoon opened de last cage. Yaungols dis time: de third an' final meal for de devilsaur. I knew dat if we didn't kill him now, we wouldn't, an' our fight would end here. He'd eat us, an' even if one o' us managed to survive, I doubt dere'd be much of us to resurrect. I saw chaos bolts fly and saw imps t'row fireballs. I saw a stampede o' animals rush toward him an' added my own stampede. Armies o' de dead rushed ta de devilsaur as he turned toward de yaungol and ate dem. De panic in our attacks was very real. My fingers burned from friction an' sweat poured down my face. Even Greymoon, wit his seemingly endless stamina, looked like he was gonna fall at any second.
As de first o' de flames began ta lick at our backs, de devilsaur stumbled. His little arms flailed like dey would be able ta keep him upright. Kyel's felguard rushed in and cut de hamstring of de devilsaur's bucklin' leg. Spells pounded his bruised, torn, bloody flesh. Arrows pierced his hide. I put my last arrow between de monster's eyes.
De devilsaur fell heavily onta his side. His uninjured leg kicked uselessly, like he was tryin' ta get back up. His tongue lolled outta his mouth as he panted for air. I saw it when his body relaxed; de devilsaur was givin' up. I watched dat mountainous side heave once, den still. We waited, clutchin' our weapons, not darin' ta take our eyes off de beast. A minute passed... Two... Ten. De devilsaur remained still.
"He's dead." Whispered Nph, sounding loud in de suddenly quiet chamber. "He's dead."
I don' know who started to laugh first, but de rest o' us joined in, makin' de chamber echo wit de sounds of our relief. We took a few moments ta rest, repair, eat, an' whatever else we needed ta do 'fore we set out again. It was only gonna get harder from here on out, but we'd come too far ta give up now.
When we were ready, we set out back up de hall ta de room wit de t'ree doors, and dis time went left.
