Yeah. But like, it’s missing its back legs. And most of its hindquarters. So it just has horse guts and entrails and stuff trailing out behind it.
Oh, so it’s just…sitting there?
No, it’s dragging itself towards you using its two front legs. They’re all bent and twisted and stuff. They’re more like spider legs at this point. Totally not matching up with what normal horse legs would look like.
Does it appear like it is threatening us, or means us harm?
Suddenly! You hear a voice inside your head. A voice that is not your own. It reaches into your mind, braying, pulling, beckoning you. Towards the horpse.
I do not want to go near that thing. Can I communicate back telepathically?
Do you want to try?
Actually, no. No. I’m just going to wave my arms and yell at it. Like, making myself big and threatening.
You open your mouth, yelling at the horpse. The creature notices this, and opens its mouth in kind. Parched and cracked horse-lips peel back, revealing a rotting horse-mouth. Protruding from between two rows of horrible horse-teeth is another, smaller mouth, extending forward on a dripping proboscis-like extension.
Wait, it has another mouth? Like a mouth inside of its mouth?
