The left head of the Runespoor latched on to your boot, but because of your Loricatus charm it couldn’t penetrate the leather. As you kicked, the left head released your boot, and moved back into position with the rest of its heads.

Hissing back at the creature didn’t do much but confuse it a little, causing it to uncoil itself and lengthening to where it was now towering over you, and then it hissed with all three heads as loud as it possibly could. The sound was deafening.

The Flipendo pushed the creature back enough to give you some space to get out of the way. Hopefully it would stay at a distance long enough for your Daydream charm to take effect.

Soon enough the middle head was calming down, looking off into the distance, as your Daydream charm started working. The middle head’s eyes glazed over as the thought of flying took over it. The left head hissed something fierce at the middle head, and the right head hissed at you, wanting to attack but couldn’t because the middle head was so taken by the idea of flying. At this point you remember that there is a second line of Runes, do you have enough time to make it out?

Unfortunately, because of the heat and your thirst, your concentration is waning, and soon it is too difficult for you to hold on to the daydream. The middle head is slowly coming out of it, and the other heads seem to be hissing with glee, ready for attack.
