Erchas watched as her wishes came true. Dwarves, and better yet, Men were willingly wandering into her domain without her doing any luring of any sort. She shook in anticipation of such a feast and it was all ahe could do not to leap on her unsuspecting victims where they stood. But she knew better than that, facing such a large number of Men and Dwarves would surely mean the end of her. Instead, she continued to watch them, silently willing them inside. She made sure she was hidden in her corner, surrounded by shadows, it wouldn't do to have them notice her too early. She decided she would trail them for a short while and pick them off from the back as they went along. The last thing she wanted was for something else to get its claws on her prize.

"Attercop." Erchas was bumped out of her thoughts, it had been very faint but she was sure she had heard it. The rage bubbled inside her and a desire to rip the heads from their puny bodies grew. She strggled to control herself but she couldn't stop a small hiss escape her. The spider froze, if they had heard her, it was possible that they would flee the cave. Erchas stayed still, as still as the stone she lived in, perhaps they would pass it off as the wind, whatever happened, Erchas was going to make sure they were caught.
