Ok, maybe it's time to bring Eredan and Gerd back onstage. Surely a mage powerful enough to resurrect Gerd can suck enough life out of Eater to weaken him, whereupon Sylvanas (and Gerd?) can take him apart. He's already sucked most of the life out of the surrounding area, if I am reading the story correctly, so there not much more to feed him. Just a thought...
Well, really the problem is more of a "...Slowly the crawling cephalopod was driving the sapient saurian straight into the arms of the awesome arachnid..." sort of thing.*
I can't write. I just sort of read and giggle and go away again.
It's not a BAD thought - but Gerd and Eredan are, as written, pretty much exhausted. Also, this scene is taking place more-or-less simeultaneously with Gerd's resurrection. Not enough time has passed to put them back in.
And Sylvanas IS incredibly powerful. My problem is that I'm underpowering her. Realistically, Eater should be a speedbump. He's only survived the fight this long because a)it wouldn't be very fun to write it that way and b) he's been fighting defensively, i.e. using every dirty trick in the book. But this really is his last gasp. Now I have to figure out how it ends, and my brain is blanking on a scene that I thought I had all planned out from the very beginning of the story.
Argh argh argh.
*I'll probably have to explain this reference to everyone who isn't family. Blargh.
