The monstrous beast which was once her mother lunged at Tama again.
Tama stood frozen, eyes wide, lips trembling. No... it couldn't be. She'd finally found her. Her mother—the woman she remembered only in dreams. The one who had given everything to save her.
Tears streaked down her cheeks, but the beast showed no mercy.
With a savage swipe, its claws raked across Tama's ribs. Flesh tore open. Blood sprayed like crimson rain as she screamed in agony, stumbling backward. But the blows didn't stop. The beast struck again, its talons carving deeper, cracking bone, until her knees buckled beneath her.
"Mama..." she whispered in a daze, her vision blurring. Her voice trembled like a dying prayer, repeated over and over as the creature tore into her. Hades laughter could be heard echoing through the entire farm.
