He aims and fires his shotgun into the distance, The blast severs a large tail of an unknown creature. He takes tail home and eats it for supper. Later that evening, the hermit wakes up to rustling and clawing noises. Unfortunately, the herit does not know the terror that awaits him outside his cabin.
