Once I decided to walk along a forest path that led to a lake in the depths of the forest. Passing by a large old oak tree that grew near the path, I noticed that someone was gazing at me from the hole in the roots of this tree. A huge creature stared at me, looking like a brown-orange dog with white horns and similar white armor all over his body. It was huge with bloody eyes and red claws that seemed to easily kill a large deer. I was very scared and, without turning around, ran back to the village, I quickly lost my breath, but I stubbornly continued to run, because I was afraid that if I stopped, I would be caught by that terrible monster. That time I successfully got to the house and never went that way because I was very afraid of repeating this story.
