Thanks mostly to my valiant efforts, and a little help from you lot -- especially , who managed the final blow when I got distracted for a second -- Hydragellos has fallen! Unfortunately, I've been informed that a second Hydragellos is on its way. Based on its current velocity and mass, it should reach the battlefield at around 6 am!

(If any of you saw me running around the battlefield screaming, I was not actually scared. I can see how you'd be mistaken due to the look of absolute terror on my face, but I was just trying to get the monster's attention so that he'd leave all of you alone. You're welcome.)
