 Darwol 

Darwol gets away as quickly as possible, easily outrunning the slow, lumbering beast. However, the beast's legs suddenly fire downward like springs under tension, shooting it into the air of the low gravity world.Again, it lands ungracefully directly in Darwol's path, but before it has time to bite down the snow gives way. Both Darwol and beast tumble down into a wide, icy crater.

Getting back onto their treads, Darwol quickly takes in the new situation. The crater is about 200 metres across and surrounded by steep ice walls; at the bottom of the crater is a still pool, several metres across. Curiously, the pool is infested with thousands of small, translucent creatures, swimming around and glowing in colours across the spectrum. Icemelt. Curious, but there were more urgent matters to draw the attention.

On the other side of the pool, the beast, on its back, was sluggishly rolling back onto its two feet. There wasn't much time. Darwol quickly looks around for an exit. There was a narrow cave close by, but before entering, Darwol hesitated. Something else had caught their attention.

Along the edge of the crater, there were figures running around. A vehicle was also visible, shining twin spotlights onto the beast.
