The beast recoils, its hide marked from battle. A high roar echoes through the trees and shudders across the surface of the swamp as the beast writhes furiously. Its eyes narrow and it collects itself, gathering its elemental power around it. Resolve tinged with an edge of rage flickers in its eyes as it rips through the water towards you.

Great job everyone, we're over halfway there!

Be careful as you go forward, the Slime Beast's attacks will increase in number and strength as it becomes more desperate.
