Failing the Trial of Bravery

The beast's claws were lightning-fast and hummed faintly in the cave's darkness, each movement a blur, each strike accompanied by a low-frequency pulse that set stone trembling. The colonist moved carefully, considering their options. A feint, a lure, an attempted blow, or perhaps a distraction. But the creature adapted faster than expected. Its next strikes landed true, and the cavern lit up in a burst of bioluminescent rage. When the dust cleared, the colonist lay dead. We had failed the trial.
