Olloch wins?

An earsplitting roar caught Seth unprepared. He flinched, covering his ears. It sounded like Olloch was right outside the cocoon. And then Seth was harshly flung about.


It felt like the cocoon had been catapulted into a web of bungee cords. He was grateful the snug interior was padded.


After Seth had been whipped about until he was unsure which direction was up, the cocoon settled to a stop. A moment later, he felt the cocoon start moving linearly. Then it stopped. Then it started again. The motion was a lot smoother now. It felt like the cocoon was in the back of a pickup truck that kept accelerating, decelerating, and turning.


And occasionally hopping.


It did not take long for Seth to deduce what it meant.


Olloch had swallowed him, cocoon and all.
