With one strike falling short,
The withered giant tree instantly felt terror creeping up its bark.
"Gotta bolt! I've gotta get the hell out of here!"
But to escape, it would have to rip itself free from the earth.
The trouble was,
That freaky phantom overhead was glaring down like death itself.
The moment it tore loose from the ground, losing its grip on solid earth, that thing would probably suck it right up!
And what would happen if it got dragged in?
The withered giant tree didn't need to think twice—
With its life hanging by a thread in someone else's hands, the writing was on the wall!
Just as dread settled into its roots,
"BOOM!"
The inverted double-horned chalice phantom's light stuttered and flashed, and the devouring force suddenly cranked up to eleven.
"Oh, crap!"
"BOOM!"
The withered giant tree threw everything it had into the fight, desperately driving its roots deeper into the ground.
But it was still torn free by that ungodly devouring force!
"Whoosh!"
