POV: you are in the caves of Lv you are surrounded you pull up your Gernade launcher you see a hulking rav the light dancing opon the cave walls making harsh shadows the rav roared in anger and charged you fire a Gernade it thuds as it bounces off the Cave floor detonating near a throwing knife the knife is launched into your chest you feel your heart cut itself into ribbions as the rav pulls out your organs like stuffing from a pillow your last sight is the rav walking away smearing your guts on the stone floor.
