AdvertisementThey were in a pedestrian area that carts couldn't approach and only stairs led to the upper part of the city . At the end of the street they found the stairs that lead towards the upper bridge . They climbed up to find themselves on a long road that crossed to the other part of the valley . It was a large cobbled avenue with carts and stagecoaches scattered all around . Paul looked on his left and saw that the highway that used to take to the bridge from outside the city was sealed off by a wall . What happened in this city? Why did people seal access to this bridge? On their right, he could see at the far end of the bridge, a big gate that used to accommodate cars going through towards the healing church . The road was decorated on each side with beautiful street lamps and statues of praying women . Surgit motioned them to look forward . Two beasts were walking on all fours . They looked like wolves, only more terrible, and fearsome . "Werewolves, these ones look really strong" whispered the man . "We need a plan of attack, these beasts can kill you in one strike" he went on as they hid themselves behind a statue, far from the beasts' sight .

Damien had some Molotov Cocktails, he and Paul had improvised them while scavenging a deserted house . They could use the fire as a distraction to separate the beasts and single them out . The man volunteered to take one on his own and advised the two to team up on one . The plan worked like a charm . The stranger rushed towards the beasts and both of them made to attack the other . Damien threw one of his cocktails on it . It caught on fire and howled terribly . The other werewolf, distracted by the fire got his head chopped off by that strange saw the man was wielding while Paul finished the agonizing beast with a strike from his axe . As silence settled down again in the bridge, the trio heard a stronger, more terrible howl in the distance . That screech could make anyone lose hope in life and feel as though anguish had settled in their heart .

Surgit recognized the sound, it was the same one he'd heard while he was climbing the ladder that lead to Gilbert's house and the dream lantern . He felt uneasy but his objective was in sight . The bridge was clear from beasts and he could see the closed gate in the distance . That big door was for cars though and there had to be a small one for pedestrians to access the Cathedral Ward .

Damien was leading the way as they were approaching the sealed gate when an enormous hand smashed him to the ground like a fly swatter does to annoying flies . There were but his clothes and his crushed bones . Surgit and Paul were sent flying backwards by the impact of the hand on Damien . When they came to, they saw the horrible abomination that awaited them in front of the gate . A towering beast, taller than any building in Yharnam, was standing in front of them . It was covered in fur and had a gigantic left arm . Its right one, although thinner than the left, was long and furry . Its feet were big and looked like a Kangaroo's, bent and ready to jump at you at any moment . The only exception was for the beasts feet which resembled a wolf's, with claws and paws . Its head on the other hand was a hybrid between wolf and deer . It had a deer's muzzle but a wolf's teeth . Its eyes were huge and glowed in red while on top of its head; the beast had grown antlers . Its torso was skinny and Surgit could see the beasts' bones almost protruding from their rib cage . It had ashen grey skin . It seemed like big trouble .
