My comment got laughs in return, and I scowled at the floating city.
I thought about the situation while waiting for the head to finish regenerating. It lacked the face, and the frontal cut was pretty interesting. I noticed it regenerated from the back of the head and then to the front. The brain itself wasn't that different from the ones I was familiar with. I'm not a neurosurgeon, however, so I may have missed the minute differences.
The monster had appeared out of nowhere from the north. It clearly didn't have well-developed instincts as it continued to charge even after seeing me. I recalled the little forest friends I saw in our trip from Riverfield to Mountroad ran away pretty fast when I approached.
I walked to one of the massive arms in the artificial clearing we created and lifted it for inspection. The wound didn't show any reaction that would indicate the growth of a new body. The thought of it being similar to a sea star had crossed my mind for some reason.
